Having heavy or frequent periods is because of more estradiol than progesterone. It looks like you described the opposite. If you're not having enough periods, eat eggs with their yolks, and spearmint tea (I see that you have essential oil, don't take more than a few drops) with an aromatase like White Peony.
They're not exactly sure what those other symptoms are. You can try Maca or another adaptogen for mood. You can balance estrogenic herbs, with progestogenic herbs and massage together. Take vitamins especially when on your period..
Thank you for your reply.
I have very light period with no pain at all (only minor discomfort- pulling feeling) however I always get very very bad mood, often I will feel very suicidal, unable to get to sleep, very anxious/fearful, angry when I have my period and the day just before my period. My cycle is just very irregular sometimes I get my period after just two weeks, sometimes it takes 40 days I do get them every time I just never know when I will get them.
I eat a lot of eggs actually (two-three a day) but I will continue doing so.
I will also continue taking spearmint and I will also start taking an aromatase.
What would the symptoms be for low estrogen compared to low progesterone ? Can low estrogen also cause acne, anxiety/depression ? I am very tall and skinny. Is it more likely that I have progesterone dominance ? Has weight and height anything to do with those hormones ?
