HRT Diary - Month 2 - Day 11 *not sleeping well

 Most things have been the same. I had a moment when I thought my memory was getting better... but as I say its pretty normal at the moment. Its very hard to judge.

Haven't been sleeping overly well. Waking up between 3-5 and not going back to sleep.  Now realise its the Progesterone that makes me sleep very soundly. Literally cant wait to start again on Friday ;-)!  I assume once my periods stop I can just take this everyday and it will be tickety boo all the time?  I have since read they call Progesterone the calming hormone.

Feel in a bit of a low mood this week. Nothing terrible, but generally a little low. Certainly not, what I realise now were wild swings from mood to mood. That could be the lack of sleep I guess?

I did get very hot in my sleep last night and felt a bit hungover this morning which as I hadn't had a drink would indicate too much salt in my meal last night and I got dehydrated. Interestingly, whilst I was hot I wasn't drenched in sweat :-)

It was all about my legs and something I have definitely felt the loss of as I have aged. I had a conversation about 4 weeks ago with my best friend in John Lewis when I saw a lovely short dress and commented I just wouldn't wear it anymore as my legs weren't good enough anymore. She said I should wear what I want and I get the point.... but I wouldn't have felt happy. Last year, I had been running consistently and they had a good shape.  They were also brown. Because last year ...
