Well you obviously did CLKD - otherwise you wouldn't have gone through menopause
Spangles is talking about lack of bleeds on cyclical HRT.....

Oh dear!
Things didn't get any better, the flushes returned, lack of sleep, aching joints, low mood, more anxiety than usual!
I caved in and went back up to 50 patch, the flushes have gone and I feel a little more human.
I think 25 is too low for me, I gave it from March, I feel like I've let myself down a little.

No, you haven't. If we get offered a new food, do we not experiment? So medication can be similar, it needs a hike, similar to adding seasoning to a new menu ;-). Do you keep a diary?

Hi.
Im not sure if this will be helpful, but I notice I get all symptoms back after using a HRT supplement for about 2 or 3 years. They just seem to stop working. What I do is then go back to the one I used 3 years previous. e.g I was on Femseven Conti since 2017 and they have now stopped working! So, I have requested Micronor plus Estrogen Gel which is what I used from 2014 - 2017. It worked before, so I am hoping it will work again.
I also (prior to them not working, cut the Femseven conti patches in half about 6 months ago and had no problem).

Hi Ladies,
Just a little update, I've stuck with the evoked 50 and the utrogestan 100/12. I didn't have a bleed for 3 months, (GP ok with this). However I got a bleed a couple of days ago so I'm pretty gutted as I thought I was moving on, sadly not. It's made me feel so I'll, obviously I felt like this every month and not having it for 3 months has been great. I really did feel the benefits of not bleeding. I really hope I don't get them every month again, I feel so disappointed and frustrated.

No advice Spangles but just wanted to send you a hug and I hope you are feeling better today. This may be just a blip so try not to get too down about it just yet. See how the next month goes.
