Hi

I changed from Oestrogel 3 pumps to Estrodot 50 last Friday (day 5) and I have been feeling rather unwell. I have a muzzy head, nauseas, legs feel like jelly and flushed in my face.

Is this because my body needs to get used to these new patches and will it settle?? Anyone else experienced these side effects??

Hi sorry can't help with your specific prescription but sure like all the other types when changing it takes time to settle. I too am changing mine over so can sympathize,have had 4 awful days but seem bit better so hang on in there. Hope you feel better soon.

When I did a similar change a few years back, I ended up really jittery. Couldn't cope. I tried to stick it out, thinking my body would adjust but after 2 months had to drop down to 37.5 patches.  I'd give it a wee while longer though as it can take a few weeks to adjust.
