I feel at the point of despair. I've been taking oestrogen only for nearly 5 weeks; felt initially fine except for a couple of blips - bit of a headache bloaty tummy - but they disappeared and I was feeling good, sleeping well etc. I noticed the past week a bit of a change and I almost wondered if the patch was absorbing. The occasional sweats, tummy increasingly uncomfortable and yesterday a mega headache which I still have and my stomach is so uncomfy.
I've been trying hrt since start of year and I either seem to react baly immediately; or feel immediately really good but 'side effects' kick in.
i've cut off half the patch (hard to see what is half as estradot is very small) as it's got to be this aggravating it.
I'm so annoyed, can't seem to live without hrt but can't live with it.
Sorry, I needed to vent.
