starting HRT again - advice about proposed regime please
« on: August 15, 2022, 01:51:51 AM »

Ive been off HRT for a while but will soon resume due to hot flushes, VA and new osteopenia. 

I am prescribed a .025 patch and 100 micronized progesterone per day, orally, for continuous regime.

I wonder if the balance between estrogen and progesterone sounds right to you?  Doc originally said .0375 patch but I wanted to be cautious and start with .025 and see how I got on. 

Does this combination sound reasonable?  anyone on it?

Sounds very reasonable as a starting point.

100 utrogestan is standard dose whether you have 25 or 100 patch…

If you are very sensitive you can even cut the 25 patch in half to start.

And don’t worry about “balance” between estrogen and progesterone- I’m now only on progesterone and on a high dose of 200mg continuous to prevent endo. And I’m doing fine…
