Welcome to EmpowHER. Bio-identical natural progesterone has the effect of being a natural anti-depressant. For this reason it has helped many women who suffer from greater anxiety during the hormonal changes of menopause. Some people do feel jitter, nervousness and a little more anxiety when starting an antidepressant medication. With time, they do go away. That might also be the problem. You need to observe your symptoms and if they don’t improve, let your OBGYN know how you are feeling.
