I see. They should really take this drug off the shelves. Imaging how many women are going to suffer! What if they all combine their forces and sue those companies which put the drug out there without a thorough testing!
Very important - what is you FSH level? Doctors say it is the first marker of menopause (if it's high). Do this tests asap and see if your ovaries really start to fail.
I see why you want to supplement PM with PC. If only your progesterone was normal then you could use PM only. But here's what I think (and this is ONLY my theory). When your estrogen is so low then you probably don't ovulate. When you start PM you will raise estrogen and will start ovulating. If you ovulate regularly then there's no need to supplement with PC because corpus luteum produces enough progesterone!
You should also read more about EFAs and their role in producing sex hormones. And probably start taking EFAs asap.
Do you exercise? If yes then you shouldn't do aerobics, only weigh lifting.
If your estrogen is low then your body doesn't retain water, this is why you think that you "lost" your toned body. Drink more water (if your kidney are fine) and use double amount of collagen. I use Meiji because it is of marine source. MSM will help you tighten up skin (use msm lotion).
