@Sophie so annoying I felt so good for a while
@Victoria same! And it was back to square one 😞 But I guess like any medication, it’s trial and error finding the right one! What are you on? I was on patches only, but now on patches and tablets and it’s working much better for me!
@Sophie I'm on oestrogel 4 pumps and utrogestan 100mg a day, I'll have to get on to the gp next week hopefully get something sorted....I'll have to warn them at work that I'm ready to snap again 🤣
@Victoria uh oh! Good luck, let us know how you get on!
@Julie yes same! Couldn’t get evorel 100 here though so had to swap to patches and tablets
@Julie thanks, I felt a bit better when I increased the gel pumps but guessing they start most people on a low dose
@Sophie will do 👍
@Julie hope you get somewhere, fortunately I've not had to deal with the hair loss yet that must be horrible
@Julie oh bless you, it’s horrendous isn’t it….thank god we can talk about it here 🙏🏻
@Julie well good luck with the clinic hopefully they'll get it sorted for you 🤞🤞
@Julie @Sophie been put on to the patches dr thinks my bodies not absorbing the gel, she said give it weeks if bo relief phone back up...🤞🤞 it kicks back in
Will they give you more than 100mg dose oestrogen @Julie? I'm on the same 100mg patch and feel like I need more but though that's the highest dose you can get?
*thought
You need to up dosage..I started a period after 10 years..so changed patches an on 200 uostogen tablets continuously

Sorry only replying to this now Angela I haven't been on here recently. I got a slightly higher dose patch and it's improved my symptoms. Thanks 😊
@Julie did you manage to get an appointment at a menopause clinic?
@Julie ah ok
@Julie hope you can have your op soon. My sister has been through that and feeling a lot better since her recovery
That's great you got a date for the op. Hope it goes well for you x
Yes, I did, after about 3 months. The doctor changed me onto different HRT and so far, so good!
