I have been on hrt for over a year now, recently had my dose raised and I admit I feel sleepier than I used to be.

    The humidity has been getting to me. Really felt sleepy when the air feels heavy

    I had kind of the opposite effect – when I first switched to injections I was getting super-sleepy at the end of every 7 day cycle.

    After talking to my doctor we switched to taking it every 5 days and it’s been way better since then! So in my case upping the dose made me less sleepy.

    I was for awhile, then got my levels checked and noticed I had zero detectable T (like, way below the target female range). Dropped my spiro dose down and that’s helped.

    Also adding progesterone seems to have helped my energy levels a ton. And since going on that I remember dreams every single night which is pretty cool : )
