Low Estrogen

So now I am freaking out. I missed the nurse who called at 4. I just saw the message and now they are closed. Nothing to really ask anyway, but she said my estrogen is only 98 and he likes to see 150. I am on 3 patches which I change every other day. Now they want me to take 2 pills a day too Luckily Kroger still has the scrip on file.

My progesterone is 15, while it had been 20.

crap:< I was so hopeful today.

  • I picked up my pills tonight. I guess I just didn't even think about getting "bad" news. I was so busy that I forgot they were going to even call me.

    I am better now. thanks.
