Help PLEASE ladies- HRT patch gone really red and itchy
« on: August 07, 2013, 07:02:43 PM »

OK - The story so far
Been on Evorel Conti patches for about 9 months really happily.
I have had a little bit of redness occasionally when taking the patch off, but nothing massive.

This morning I changed patch as usual, at about 4 this afternoon it felt really itchy.
On inspection (mirror and twisting around) it looks REALLY RED. It's a red circle a bit like a bulls eye, not the normal patch shaped area. I've tried an antihistamine tablet but it's not done much.

Any other ideas would be appreciated, did I mention it's really itchy, I am not due to change patch till Saturday, don't know whether to try and change the patch position before then. Either that or go mad

Had the same with femseven patches. Had to give up in the end as skin started to blister. I use gel now and am fine with that.
