I’m just wondering if anyone else has had this particular issue. I have been on tirzepatide since October and only had minor constipation issues. I started HRT 7 weeks ago (estradiol patch & 200 mg progesterone) and it seems that my bowels have shifted the total opposite direction. I LOVE how I feel otherwise on the HRT but it’s gotten so bad that I’m dizzy and lightheaded a lot of the time because I have diarrhea pretty much every morning. Not really stomach cramping just very loose bowels all the time. Often after I eat too. I don’t know if it’s coincidental timing or if one is affecting the other but I’m hoping for some input from others! (Btw 66 lbs down as of today!)

I have quiet BPD and my brain constantly tells me to do something to end things. I don’t know what to do tonight. I can usually talk myself out of this but…struggling today. I have a good life. I am happily married (23 years) to the most supportive person ever..the love of my life. I have two kids (16/20) who I love so much but don’t really need me anymore. I have a ton of physical issues including fibro and chronic fatigue and can no longer work but am fighting for disability. My brain constantly wants me to OD. I have given in 3 times over the last 2 years. I have been in ICU one of those times. Inpatient hospitalization all 3. I love my people. Why do I still want to end this so badly?
