I would recommend you start supplementing with natural progesterone cream and see what this all looks like in 3-6 months. I would bet you see a real improvement. Your symptoms are common for perimenopause and they do feed into each other. The hormone imbalance is the key and the progesterone is a safe and effective way to get back in balance. BJ
