I have seen lots of info on high estrogen/low progesterone but what does it mean when both are higher than the norm when you have been in menopause for a number of years? Can you do anything about it? I am having thyroid problems...hyper....also. Probably related. I am having lots of bad symptoms that I have never had before..anxiety, depression, high blood pressure, indigestion, low energy level. I is getting to me. Any help would be appreciated.

I also haven't had a period for 20 months and still have some of those symptoms. In fact, they became more prevalent after I stopped having periods.

I don't know what those levels are about. If you find out let us know.

How long has it been since your last period. I do know that some of those symptoms can go on for about 2 years after the last period.
