my personal opinion is that you need more gel.

try going up to 3 pumps for a month see how you get on x

MayB up the dose every other night so as not to overload your system?  Then after 5-6 nights add it nightly?

HI pmj

Sorry to hear about your woes. Are you sure that your lack of feeling well has anything to do with the oestrogen? What were the symptoms you experienced that led you to start HRT in the first place eg did you have flushes and sweats and how often were you natural periods coming?

Could there be other cause for your symptoms that a GP could look into?

Other than that follow discogirl and increase your dose to see if that improves things, but keep a diary of how you feel.

What do you use for progestogen?
