biodentical hormone creams

I have been on bi-est 1.25 and progestorone 10mg creams for 3 months now. I have been feeling terrible, to hot, than to cold, always tired and the itching bug crawling feeling, i also feel like my muscles tighten up(anyone else have this?) Had the doc recheck my levels wont know till tues. I am afraid I don't have enough of something. My tsh is on the low end of normal at .74 I was hoping my cycles would start again. They haven't. Also the sweet cravings are terrible!
Wanted advice or opnions please.

Re: biodentical hormone creams

emerita is the best otc cream it has 20mg per dose. 10mg per dose probably isnt enough. To rule out thyroid issue which is what it sounds like you need more than your tsh tested. Testing only your TSH for thyroid is like testing your foot for a heart problem
