I've been using Progesterone Cream and Wild Yam Root supplements. It is day 3 and I'm seeing some negative side-effects but no good ones.
Hot Flashes
Extremely tired/sleepy
Lower leg pain
I looked up both products and was informed that wild yam can cause severe leg thrombosis (blood clots), so I am discontinuing. I was told in this forum that WY increases progesterone, but online, it says it increases estrogen.
I'll stop taking WY and see if Pro-Gest works.
