Author Topic: Who else hates the bigger boob growth due to estrogen? What's the solution?  (Read 4718 times)

I'm on Everol 50 patch. I'm not that sure what it's doing for me, to be honest, but my boobs feel huge - and they were already big. I absolutely hate it - I do a lot of exercise and they just get in the way. I didn't have that problem on Estradot.

Is there a chance they'll go back to regular size whilst I'm on Evorel? Or should I consider changing to a lower dose patch or Estradot again?

Hi there noheroics - how are you?!

I do have a feeling that in some women more oestrogen may be absorbed from Evorel than Estradot - I was switched to these from Elleste solo and I think I'm possibly getting a higher dose though wouldn't know except by measurement of levels - but sometimes I feel like I have more energy (even allowing for decline due ageing...).

My boobs grew bigger/fuller on all oestrogen though I've also put on weight generally over the years - I am about half a stone too heavy really, so some of that tends to go on the boobs.

Sorry to hear you are  unhappy with your boob growth - personally I didnt notice a difference between patches....is there are chance you are still peri and natural hormones causing this? Also depends how long you've been on Evorel whether it will settle. I presume you have a good sports bra ( which I really should invest in but never have done!).

Also sorry I can't help further

Hi Hurdity,

I'm fine, thanks - hope you are well?

I definitely notice more boob swelling on Evorel than either Estradot or Estrogel. I suspect I'm absorbing more, which is good, but I hate the boob thing. It's not to do with weight gain, but it is really noticeable. And no, def not peri any more.

I think I'll switch to Estradot and see how I get on.

I too hate my bigger boobs. I went from 34E to 38G. I have a lot of shoulder pain now.
