Tomorrow I'm having the first of the combined patches- I've told hubby to brace himself in case I turn into a hormone monster!!

[karenja]

Ha ha let me know how you get on - best of luck to hubby x

[karin]

First day on the progesterone part of evorel sequi, had a couple of flushes this morning but after that nothing, hoping thats it in term or side effects!

[karenja]

fingers crossed, as I will be starting them next Sat, hope it goes ok x

[karin]

Little bit of a headache this morning but gone now and no flushes today,

[karenja]

Hi its good no flushes, hope it continues to be ok

[karin]

Thats great!!
Im finding the progesterone is making me a bit wired! Im on the edge but I'm aware i am and can calm it down- a bit teenage and laughable! I must admit i prefer the oestrogen only part but its only day 3 so will keep at it and hope it calms down!!

Karin that is just how I felt the first month almost a bit manic. I am
Sure I posted something similar a while back. It does wear off & I do prefer the second part of the month now. B x

Hi Karin, I was actually saying its good you had no flushes on your first day, not me mine are still there , sorry that you having a few funny side effects with the progesterone, hope it calms, god that will be me next weekend though everybody is different I guess x

Try not to second guess what will happen.
When I started off on my patches I did not even know about this forum so was blissfully unaware of how things might go.
I was not sitting expecting things to happen.

All was fine perhaps helped by that's how I expected things be.

It's like if you are feeling fine and someone tells you you look poorly. You start to examine yourself for an illness that's not there.

Just go with the flow.

Hi Honeybun I will try

How are you now Karin?

[karin]

Dear Bev
Please can you kindly say why you prefer the 2nd two weeks, it would be good yo know
Karenja sorry i misunderstood and hop you doing ok

[karenja]

Hi Karin, yes I have been fine today thanks, how are you doing now?

[karenja]

Hi Karin how are you doing have you been back to the gp? x

Karin I prefer the second half as I feel a better sense of well being. Having said that I am experiencing a good first half this month so goodness knows what I will be like in the next 2 weeks 😀 maybe it has just taken this long to stabilise. I have been on them 7 mths now. I Have been told I can carry on long term until I am 54 or missed a bleed for 12 mths whatever comes first then I can go onto the next stage of patches. Compare me to 12 mths ago there is no comparison I am so glad to have been prescribed them. B x
