So now nearly a month of HRT. I don't believe I've had any side effects yet. In fact at this stage of the cycle, despite thinking last week I had cramps, I didn't. I am having very little hints that I would be due on soon. Which is how I would have been a few years ago. No breast tenderness, no PMT, no stomach cramps nothing at all. Maybe a slight bloatedness... What is noticeable is no night sweats at the moment. Especially as yesterday I did go into London and have a couple of glasses of wine and a cocktail (albeit a small one). Even so, I would be expecting to have them by now anyway and absolutely after even just one glass of wine. Still getting out of bed being able to walk. I also went for a 10km walk on Sunday with absolutely no aching muscles after. Even when I was at the peak of my running. My muscles were always tired and achy after a walk.
Took my last dose of Utrogestan last night. Feel good in every other way. But would say I'm noticeably more forgetful/absent minded today and yesterday. Again this would be normal at this time in my cycle. I want to keep a note of this as potentially this is when I would do two pumps of the Lenzetto and need to work out the timings so I can be proactive. Not that I can really do two pumps... as according to my NHS app, despite the dosage saying 1-3 pumps per day. The NHS App ordering is only allowing me to order as if I was doing 1 a day and there are 56 doses in an applicator.... wrinkles to be ironed out... As far as the brain fog goes generally. I wouldn't say I have been bad. But, wouldn't say there has been an improvement either. Hence looking to see if the two pumps makes an improvement. If not I would be looking at taking testosterone. I think I'll carry on with the 1 pump and try and see more of a cycle.
Eyes swollen and have managed to sooth by using the De Mamiel wonder Balm and putting cool compress on before I went to work. Look acceptable. By the evening felt sore in the lash line (but had worn makeup today) and took an antihistamine before bed.
