Does anyone know how progesterone cream affects anxiety? I've read some sites that say it can cause women to feel calmer, while others that say it can cause panic attacks.

Well I've been taking it for the last couple of days and it's making me feel weird. I sort of get an over stimulated feeling, and I think what I'm experiencing is a full blown panic attack. I'm no newbie to panic attacks but these one are really bad (complete with hyperventilating etc.) I was thinking it might be an allergic reaction, but it seems a lot more like panic.

Anyone think the they could be related? Has PC ever made any of you feel weird?

It's my first month using it too and I haven't felt anything near that but I've had panic attacks before (totally unrelated to NPC) and if that's what it is, I'd suggest you stop using NPC.

I used progesterone cream for about 4 months, and there were times where I swear it was making me feel "buzzed". It would usually happen the first day I started taking it after my break.

As for anxiety, there were times where my heart would start racing and my sinuses would act up which makes me feel like I can't breath and I freak out a little bit. Mind you, all of this stuff started happening after I read that NPC can cause these symptoms, so I always thought it was a mental thing. It was also right around the same time I started losing confidence in the cream (my acne started coming back, I was feeling tired again, etc.).
