Hi Jaydee
Totally agree with Milamam.
There seems to be a contradiction here (again doc is wrong, yet another).
Looks like your coming up to that big 60 window that the doc's can't see thru !!!
Even the BMS have stated that no age should be associated with ending or reducing our HRT.
If it does you good and the lower 1/10 is not working - get back on the 2/10 for now.
Also FEMOSTON 2/10 and the 1/10 your on now are sequi HRT's so you'd still have a monthly cycle.
Just surprised the Doc has not offered you a Conti HRT option to help you further???
Age doesn't come into it.
You can take your choice of HRT till whatever age you wish. The BMS have now confirmed this.
The only concern is when we start too late ie over 60 before taking any HRT for the first time - the best advice there is start low and build up if you feel its helping that late.
However your not that. Your already successfully using HRT for a long time. So if it works why break it Doc?
The doctor is obliged to take on board your wishes and give you back what you need. It's YOUR choice not theirs.
See the following also for low FEMOSTON CONTI* and other medium options thats closer to your optimal HRT. If you want to go that route.
http://www.menopausematters.co.uk/postmeno.phpIf you are happy with the prog with Femoston, and want to try the conti route, then you could still take that FEMOSTON CONTI*.
However you would need a separate 1mg Ellleste solo to make up for the shortfall in Estradiol each day. Mentioned earlier that you can spead the Estrogen part out during the day if you feel a little sweaty overnight. Plus you'd have the benefit of no more monthly
Or choose another of the medium conti HRT's instead.
On the bio route its a big change again and from what I've seen on the forum not everyone takes to Utrogestan. I think someone mentioned its supposed to be taken in evening as a lot of people feel drowsy on it.
Please go back and get back to your normal self asap, all the very best for that.
Hope the suggestion on the conti + elleste solo helps too.
