I'm curious about how you're using it and may have questions for you later.

I've been generally aiming for regular dosing all month (5xday), a few drops by feel not measured carefully. But, I sometimes forget doses when I'm feeling OK, and I sometimes deliberately increase when migraine threatens or begins to try to head it off ( several doses over an hour or two). I've been using it for nearly 1 year, gradually increasing amounts, starting at about a bottle a month and now up to ~ a bottle in two weeks.

My main reasons for using it is to counter migraines and fuzzy-headedness. It clearly helps against the fuzzy-headedness, but has not overall reduced my migraine frequency. I wonder whether being more rigorous about regular dosing, or increasing the dose, would help. Expense is an issue.

I continue to menstruate while taking progest-e. Have been slack lately about tracking timing, so not sure how regular I am. Age ~50ish

I feel dependent on it now. I wonder what adaptations my body has made.
