I added Prometrium to my HRT a few months back. Did anyone who added this after estradiol notice that your breasts seem to be more sore at night? I am use to the daily soreness but at night pretty uncomfortable when i roll onto my stomach etc. I'm taking the pill in the evenings before bed.
On the good note side, i seem to be already seeing more changes to my breasts and areolas

There's a lot of posts on this topic, and a one really large one. It would be worth searching for them.
Opinion is very divided as to the benefits.

I have been using progesterone since the beginning and YES.
My breasts hurt for well over a year but have started to die down. They hurt when the wind blew...
That's how sore mine were...
They are only a bit sore now. I am so happy with my breasts, I have a C cup...and big puffy areolas.

Yes, progesterone also makes my breasts more sore, puffy and larger.

Thanks everyone so far, i have seen positive effects, soreness aside. The difference in feeling from night to day is quite remarkable, just thought id see if anyone saw the same thing.

I used to sleep on my stomach. Now I haven't since I grew breasts 10 years ago. I kind of miss being able to do that, but it hurts too much now. Totally worth it though.
Oh right, the original issue...
I took some progesterone when I was growing them too. Basically breasts tend to hurt when they grow.
