Hi I'm on the everol 75mg patch and for the last 2 month I've had thrush straight after my monthly bleed
Help. I think it's this patch has anyone else had the same thing happen to them

[CLKD]

Yep.  For several years.  For me it was due to gradual drying high up in the vagina as the bleed stopped.  KY Jelly was my lubricant of choice applied as high up as possible, often.  The dryness made me itch.

Did you not change your hrt

[CLKD]

Oh that was years B4 my periods stopped.  Mostly all the while during my menstruating history: heavy, painful bleeds with clots which went on for 7-10 days.  Then as the bleed dried and became a brown stain, itching would begin, high up.

I used to get this at the end of periods.  I just used canestan each time

That made my whole vagina worse  .

Oh it worked for me but back on those days

[Sammiej21]

No I use pads. But 2 month ago I started taking 100mg utrogestan tablets everyday for 25 days then 3 days without as I was bleeding every 2weeks when taking 2 tablets for 15 days

I'm sure my My doc said the ph balance changes at the end the period.  She didn't seem concerned but it was a nuisance

How about eating LIVE Greek yoghurt every day for 6 weeks to see if that will ease the whole digestive tract?  I have also used it as high up in the vagina as possible to ease the dryness and associated itching.  On the end of a tampon which is soaked with yoghurt is the best way of delivery.
