I have just applied my 4th Evorel Conti patch, last time I used them was about 10-12yrs ago, and I suffered bad headaches and nausea, but so far that's not happened, however my night flushes are more frequent and intense, so less sleep
My memory is dreadful and I do feel confused and anxious most days, but I felt like this with Femseven Conti patches (now discontinued for a year) so its not just Evorel, I find I cannot remember simple names of things sometimes, and a thought can flit out of my head in a split second so I lose track of what I was about to say, then maybe 10 - 30 seconds later the name of something or what I was about to say springs clearly into my brain, my meno started when I was around 49, last period around 54 this Summer I will be 70, so 21 years since my hot sweats started, but with HRT I no longer get dripping sweats 24/7 infact daytime I am flush free ( unless very hot day) but nothing has stopped night flushes and its lack of sleep I blame for my cotton wool head..i do have to take 1/2 sleeping tab a few nights a week, especially if I have an appointment, or social function, so I can get about 4hrs sleep flush free.
Makes me so angry that GP's have no knowledge of HRT or of Meno problems, and its just cope with your sweats, low mood, anxiety, panic attacks or take an AD it will pass 12-24mths, but as we know that's not true...its like Meno is not considered as a problem at all.
