I have a friend, also menopausal, on HRT. She was on a cyclical system where you take estrogen only for 7 days then add progesterone for 14 and then nothing for 7 days ( I guess to simulate a "normal" menstrual cycle). It's a very common HRT approach.
She found that the days without progesterone were unbearable. She would cry for no reason and get very sad. She changed to both hormones, full time and is doing well.
It just illustrates that we are all so different!!!
