> I was wondering if anyone had found estrogen to be useful as an augmentation strategy to enhance response to an antidepressant. Ive read that estrogen may be seroternergic.
> Has anyone had any experience with it and can say whether it is helpful. Is there the possibility of mania or cycling whilst using it?
>I fell into a deep depression, with all other meds in place, when my estrogen level, unbeknownst to me, slipped to half of normal. Took a month on increase to get back up.
Haven't noticed any cycling attributable, but YMMV.
