Just to let you know that like Laurie (on the other Progesterone thread), I also seek improvements to Bone Density as I have had Osteoporosis since 2007 but there was an improvement after annual infusions. I seek Progesterone primarily for breast maturation and for the yet unproven but hopeful sign of areolae increase.

Just to let you know that after 14 days on Progesterone, I have certainly noticed that I sleep better - both deeper and with less interruption.

As I said previously, I shall provide updates in April/May and subsequently on my "HRT Record" thread.

Hugs

Pamela

Hi Pamela, as a small update on my own use of progesterone, my areolae have definitely increased in size.  In regards to sleep, mine has been more of a deeper variety with vivid dreams.

I am very happy for you Jess on both counts.

I hope to follow suit. Time will tell.

Hugs

Pamela

Jessica & Pamela,

would you ladies suggest taking the P in the morning or evening to aid sleep?

Kirsten, I was advised to take it before bedtime, as it can make you sleepy.  Not good if you need to drive or the like.

Another observation I've made is that my nipples seem to be bigger, more projection too.

I will see my endo on the 11st, and I hope that i can convince him to prescribe it for me.  I did send him already all the new research info!

Kind regards, Kirsten.

Kirsten, I thank my mom for that... my hips, thighs and butt have definitely gained fat since I started HRT, my boobs started rather rapidly.  There is no hiding them.

Im going to do this Pamela. My doctor just advised to take the E & AA & P at one time. I will do this before before bed.

Also looking forward to your P experience Pamela.

Last night was a good sleep for me. Will report further on that angle.

Tank you Pamela.  But with him I am not so sure, because he feels he is the greatest.  I might have to remind him again that I am also a medical expert!  He seems to thrive on academic titles!

Hello fellow progesterone patients & potential proponents & protagonists of Prometrium.

Progesterone does seem to inrease sleepiness( for me first hand) . At the moment taking Androcur,Sandrena, Prometrium just before bed.

Good sleep is the result.

At the moment vitals are 6' 189 lbs, bust 46" waist 36" hips 41" size 16 uk.

I am terrified of bloating on P in all the wrong places. Hoping for more breast development - would love to offset masculine frame with more bum & hips

Would love to get to 174 lbs but struggling.

Mood is unaffected so far. Was a bitch before HRT. Hoping to be a bigger one(not fatter one)

Hopefully P will assist in the RIGHT places.

Look out Jessica Alba !

Kirsten xx.

I note your comments with regard to your hopes and aims and I am glad that you are another girl whose sleep has improved.

Just out of interest, do you also seek areolae increase (like Jess and I) please?

Hugs

Pamela

Just as a side line, you do such a nice job in keeping tabs on the blood levels of hormones,  would you want to start something similar on the size of areolae?
I am all alone here, and have no clue, if I have big or little one, and because it is many years ago now that my breasts started to grow, I have no memory anymore how mine looked like when I was as flat chested as the guy next door.
I am currently around 1 3/8" (they are not easy to measure, because I need glasses to see that close, and my glasses don't turn that far down to see properly).

Hi Linde, my areolae fluctuated in size from the beginning of starting hrt.  My first areolae measurements were 1 1/4" and my nipples were 1/4".  As I mentioned those dimensions changed at times from larger (up to 1 3/4") then back to the original size prior to starting prometrium.
After 3 weeks on progesterone my areolae increased to 2" and my nipples increased to 3/8" and projected out further.  Headlights anyone.........

Thanks, and I made a typo.  My areolae are 1 3/4 and not 1 3/8 of an inch! They do not fluctuate in size at all  My nipples, when hard, are about 1/4", and also project out by about 1/4".
Now I really am wondering what progesterone would do to my "headlights"? I would not want areolae that cover half of a breast as one can see with some women, and I also would not want nipples that are to big.  I do not need and plan to nurse any babies, and if my nipples would not get any bigger, it would be fine with me!
I want to grow one more bra size, which might be possible, because the girls are still hurting constantly.  And I hope that one of these days, my right side boob will catch up with the left side one, because it is darn hard to find bras with different cup sizes for left and right!

Hi Linde,                         03 April 2019

Get a stretchy sports bra; that should work until the left and right match up.

Best Always, Love
Chris

Thanks Christine, that is the way i am running around the world currently, but this will not allow for a nice shaped look of the boobs under a dress!
