Perimenopause, HRT, question about my progesterone

Depression/Anxiety

Hello everyone, I am new to this community and this is my first post. I started the estradiol patch at 0.025 last week along with 100 MG of identical progesterone; Prometrium. I’m probably spelling it wrong because I’m using dictation to text. I feel like the progesterone makes me sleepy but also anxious. Does this get better. Yes I’m taking it at night and while it initially will make me sleepy I then am having like panic and anxiety later on in the night that isn’t normal for me.
