Estrogen

Hi ladies.

So I am on estrogen patches for my current FET cycle. (ttc since 2011) 
I am up to 4 patches a day and I've noticed that I am a LOT more tired than usual. I don't remember this on my MOCK cycle.
Can estrogen cause tiredness like this? I mean it's to the point I can barely get up in the mornings. Just enough to homeschool my daughter and go back to bed.

Normal?

    I am also on 4 vivelle (estrogen) patches changed e/o/d day since July 7, plus they added two vaginal estrace pills per day too when my lining was too thin.

    Estrogen has so many side effects, I am sure fatigue is one of them.

    Good luck on your upcoming FET!!!!!!!
