Hi
I'm looking for advice please , not had periods since I was 42 now 51 , but was struggling with joint pain , to the point where I couldn't sleep the night before it rained due to leg pains , feeling down and unhappy , things got so bad decided to go on hrt , went to doctors and was given elleste duet , these worked after two weeks , no pain , better moods , sleeping better but then had a very heavy painful period which lasted for 5 days , carried on taking the tablets and the same the next month , took them for the 3 months , then was due for review with the doctor . She swapped me to the elleste conti , but the leg pain and feeling of sadness has returned only been taking the tablets for two weeks also have severe breadt pain continually , has anyone any advice on these tablets , thank you in advance

Were you originally taking Elleste Duet 1mg or 2mg?

Hi
Elleste duet 1mg ,

[Dotty]

The conti has double the amount of oestrogen so that could be why you are having problems.

Thank you , I hadn't realised , I will make an appointment again

Kliovance has 1 mg and is a conti hrt.
