    damn, that’s brutal - it sounds you you need to take care of yourself! 🫂

    I started progesterone yesterday and it’s already giving me better sleep, allowing me to sleep a little more deeply and longer than before. I had been having trouble even catching up on sleep on the weekend because I was just doing estrogen monotherapy, I would sleep like 6 hours and the body would wake up and I couldn’t fall asleep, even if I felt tired.

      I hate to admit it but I can’t do much sadly… Most of the sleep issues right now are caused by heat and I can’t really do anything against it (for example installing an AC is literally illegal because of the type of house). (Yes, I’m looking to move again dw)

      But hey, I started E today so maybe that’ll help a little

      • Good luck with your transition and we hope you find some way to cool down, is fans accessible where you are? As in the UK they are pretty much common place instead of getting AC and could take the edge off
