I am experiencing a very uncomfortable feminine transition, which has sent me reeling with migraines, fatigue and muscle aches. The treatment I've been given (low dose progestin) prevents the headaches and improved my energy level, but these days when I race, I feel more like a pack-a-day smoker than Hercules, which is killing my motivation to compete.
I'm wondering if any of you have had (are having) similar experiences and how you're handling it. I look forward to hearing your thoughts and experiences :)
Also, no particular need to apologize to the men in the group (at least, not in my opinion). I suspect many of us have wives going through menopause, so are, at least sympathetic, if not actually helpful...

Well the good news for me is that I haven't had any sleep or mood problems. My husband is thrilled I'm on the medication because when I had nightly migraines and I had to sit in a chair with a towel on my head, that meant no cooking dinner not to mention other activities...
