It's supposed to help lighten my periods so we'll see if it has that benefit - I'm not sure it will end up being worth it for me though.

Wow - that's a downer, hope your experience is better than mine! I've never done well on hormones though (e.g. birth control pills).

I'm doing the same thing. I'm good during the progesterone taking phase, but a wreck when I go off of it for the first week. Pretty much everything described above. I cried for 24 hours for no reason!

It did lighten my periods, though.
