Hi there, just wondering if anyone uses a 37.5 Estradot patch and a 25 Estradot patch together to give a total of 62.5mg I’ve just been prescribed this at my request as I was on 50mg Estradot patch but upped to 75mg Estradot patch as was still having symptoms on the 50, I felt so much better on the 75 but after 7 weeks of being on it I started to bleed and had very sore lumpy breasts so I panicked and went back to my 50 patches. I think maybe I jumped the gun and should of waited a while as my headaches have returned and feeling a bit anxious again, it’s nearly 3 weeks since going back to the 50 patch. I thought that maybe trying the 62.5mg first before leaping back to the 75mg although my Doctor said it was such a small amount it probably wouldn’t make any difference. I also asked my doctor for some Ovestin cream to use on the outside bits alongside my vagifem but she said I couldn’t have both or increase my Vagifem from 2 a week to 3. She said it was all too much estrogen.
Anyway should I put the two patches close together when I apply them and does anyone use this amount instead of 75. My first time posting on here 😊 been on HRT for 19 weeks now but been using Vagifem for nearly 5 years.
