it's been 8 mo. 4 weeks since starting diy estrogen, I don't know where my levels are at for injections since I haven't done any blood work but now I wake up feeling super sleepy and get stuck in a cycle of just going back to sleep a lot. I note lower energy during the day too. Feels a bit scary. Is this a major concern? I was going to go to urgent care to get a hormone panel done but it's Easter and everything closes soon
>>43168910This is not that rare and it typically resolves itself. Are there other symptoms that come from it? Difficulty breathing, dizziness, etc?
There is a link between estrogen and vitamin D issues.
>>43168950Not really any difficulty with anything else. I've had a few instances of feeling really physically weak during the night but I think that was just low blood sugar.There was one instance where my heart was really racing one time and I had the inverse problem of not being able to go to sleep so I lowered my dose from that.Moreso, just a notable lack of energy that's crept into my life and sometimes not being able to get up on time. I'm only on E mono, no prog or AA.
