Hi Tempest,

I know how difficult the last couple of months have been esp with the Tibolone. Like I said to the other ladies, well you tried Tibolone and now you know it wasn't for you. Things will settle and you can put the experience behind you sending you hugs x

I think you have to give the transition time, start low and work up to a dose you're comfortable with.  I've come to the conclusion (for me at least) I'm never going to be free of every symptom but I long and aim to eliminate the most troublesome

I was told this week by my well woman nurse that the first 3 months are settling in and the next 3 are it working its best.  All easy to say if there's no nasty effects .

Years ago when my ovaries first failed I was given hrt and it was like a miracle within days and although I had to step up a dose it took every symptom away for 13 years, I've never been that lucky since x

I don't have any experience with oestrogel but I've always liked the idea that it must be the easiest way of adding/reducing amount of oestrogen.  So I can't advise on what to start with only go low and then add on accordingly, I guess if it's recommended to start at 2 pumps it's worth a try x

I took Tibilone for 15 years and felt great, no side effects ever, nothing. However when I reached 70 last year, my doctor accepted that I wanted to stay on HRT but said he would like me to change to Elleste. After 3 months I began to bleed, had a clear scan. Four months later I had two successive bleeds that felt like full blown periods. This led to my having a clutch of tests including a biopsy. All clear again, thank goodness. The hospital consultant was very supportive and recommended me taking Tibilone again. So I'm back on it and feeling very good and positive about it; I just could have done without all those tests! Tibilone is great as far as I am concerned.
