The cream gets used up in 13 hours or so. Something else is the matter. I've been using progesterone pills PLUS the cream in high doses for almost 5 years. I take a week off here and there without problems. Im now only taking 10 or 20 mgs cream per day unless very stressed then i take more. If i take too much i get slelepy and my bladder leaks and i get too hot and sweaty. I used to take 3 times that amount when i was on bi est estrogen. I'm post menopause and have mild adrenal insufficiency. Most of the progesterone I use seems to get converted into cortisol which helps me a great deal since the doctors said I was borderline and won't give me cortisol. I tried estrogen several times and it seems to build up in my system and causes big problems for me like low temperature s and extreme fatigue. I also take dhea 12.5 mgs a day. It works better than testosterone cream for me and is way cheaper. Pls note that some people convert progesterone straight into estrogen so that may be your original problem. I don't think the P cream is still in your system. Ps I had tons of problems with hormones since age 35 . Finally went to a naturopath who put me on adrenal support and then natural desiccated thyroid. It has helped a great deal.
