Hi ladies

I've been on HRT for about 6 months now and uptil this month its worked great.i've had Af like clock work.
This month i had normal Af then started again on CD 11 then spotting on CD 26 now i'm spotting again CD47 so i think now i'm getting too much estrogen at the begining of the cycle and when i get to the end haven't got any lining to shed so only spot.(Never had Af before now i have more than one a month)

As the months have gone on i'm tired a lot more than normal,leading upto Af is terrible i'm really tearful(thats not like me i'm usually grumpy)i've just about had enough.
Provera on its own doesn't work because i have low estrogen levels.
I want to do the herbs again so i would like other cycters experinces with different herbs that i've searched.
As well as low estrogen i have low LH and slightly high testosterone
i've tried licorice before but only like clomid anyone take it for longer than 5 days?
I've also read a lot about red clover has anyone used this?
What about black cohost to raise LH levels.Never tried this before anyone got experince with this does it work.

Any experiences with these herbs would be greatly appriecated
i'll go do some more research and sit and hope that Af comes full force in the next few day and then i can pack in with the hrt

Thanks
