Effexor tapering while on HRT

Anyone else have issues tapering while also taking hormones? I’m in perimenopause and taking Biest and progesterone and testosterone. It’s been going great, but since starting the taper I have started spotting and bleeding for days and weeks at a time. My Dr told me to take more progesterone and wasn’t very helpful. I had an ultrasound last year that showed no issues with fibroids or anything. I feel awful. Like the flu x 10. And I’m only down about 25% of my Effexor dose after two months of slowly counting and removing beads. It makes me want to just go back on my full dose but I know I’ll be mad at myself. I’ve been on Effexor 6 years. Thx for listening. I’m struggling.
