Coming off HRT elleste duet
« on: March 19, 2015, 08:10:40 AM »

Hi all
I have been on elleste duet dor about fifteen months and decided to come off it. So a few weeks ago just stopped taking them. I was gains weight anD bloated and on lots of other medication for asthma etc Which I have bee ill with for last for past ten weeks. Have I done the right thing? I am questioning this as I seem more bloated and getting migraines and headaches that starry at night thru into the morning.
Any ideas please? Or share experiences?
Thanks

Hi

Am about to start Elleste duet ! So am interested....sorry I have misunderstood your post... Do you mean you put on weight and was bloated whilst on it or whilst now off it....? And did Elleste help your symptoms, did you feel any better at all on it ?

I used to blame HRT for my headaches and other annoying health problems but when I came off HRT they all got worse.  Did the HRT reduce your meno symptoms?  DG x

Hi Rosy

Rosy not sure if you decided to come of HRT on your own or with a push from a friend or doc (usual pattern).
I think a lot of us look at HRT as the first thing to blame.
As your seeing you've stopped and its not changed anything, so therefore not the actual problem.
Your situation will get worse as further meno symptoms come crashing back.
I'd say get back on and look to other things like diet and the other drugs first for bloating.

Most of my weight gain was increasing before I went on HRT. Since HRT things have stabilized and I don't seem to be creeping up the scales each day.

Like others I had headaches before HRT but since starting those have reduced to almost nothing now. Still get headaches but nothing like the years running up to starting HRT.

Hope you manage to get back to where you were and feel better.
