I'm so relieved to read your comments - I wrote the comments from March (yours posted beneath mine) and had begun to think I was crazy. Its been over two months now and I too have been having depression plus difficulty focusing on anything. The Prometrium is giving me daily headaches, I had nausea with it for a week like morning sickness and I continue to be awakened with faux menstrual cramps at night (when I CAN sleep as I'm having difficulty sleeping) and some breakthrough bleeding. Also, the testosterone "spiked" (per doctor's office) to the point that I thought I would lose my mind. I was horribly distracted, in a contstant state of arousal and aggitation, and since I live alone this was not pleasant. The 'spike' lasted about a month, then seemed to disappear overnight and then I crashed into depression. I also wonder if some women are mistaking the testosterone's increased sex drive for "increased energy.". My doctor suggested I stop taking the progerone for a few days but the pharmacist said I need a lower dose. I've been on a physical and emotional rollercoster for two months - not sure now if I want to continue pellet therapy but also wonder if it will magically straighten itself out at some point.
