You may do better absorbing a progesterone oral troche than using the capsules. You may not be able to absorb them well if you have gut health issues. It needs absorption with a fat like Greek yogurt or peanut butter and maybe you’re also sensitive to the peanut or soy oils the caps come in. While you’re already off kilter from not absorbing the topical progesterone it’s tough to figure it out. Patience is key.

FWIW I was on 250 mg progesterone and opened a 25mg cap to divide it and I’m bumping up using 12.5mg (approximately) slowly and I still have side effects but they’re manageable/tolerable. I know I could not handle a 100mg bump all at once. No way.

“The Freedom State” (/s obvi)

Americans paying for this shit over and over again. I really wish we knew the actual tally for his bullshit cases.

How ironic(?) that Nazis or at the very least Nazi sympathizers have been in control or currently control Florida and they put forth an African American male candidate to take the reigns, then they do this prior to the elections. They are head spinning trolls, all while funding Israel. Make it make sense.

Is this oral or topical transdermal progesterone? If topical (TD), switch to oral. You may have an absorption issue with it. If it’s compounded oral and it’s not long acting,

I would consider discussing with your HRT doctor about an oral troche and taking that along with with a fat like full fat Greek yogurt. Ask the doctor if you should put the troche in the mucus membrane between teeth and cheek and let it sit a few seconds. It’s possible you may not have optimal stomach absorption with the compounded oral powder filled capsule. Women who have the oil filled caps discuss biting down and letting the gel swish in the mouth before swallowing for better absorption.

ETA - FWIW I had this same experience with compounded progesterone caps and transdermal. I also had to bump the dose slowly until bleeding stopped. Easy enough to do with compound capsule.

If it’s compounded oral and it’s not long acting, I would consider making a coconut oil troche with the contents of the capsule and some stevia or sweetener and taking that with a fat like full fat Greek yogurt.
