Mouth ulcers and HRT/oestrogen vaginal cream
« on: August 18, 2024, 09:20:22 AM »

I can’t see this as a listed side effect but started on a combo patch and vaginal oestrogen cream and roof of mouth very sore. Anyone else? Perhaps coincidence

Hi. 

Do U sleep with your mouth open?  Do U have allergy-type hay-fever symptoms?  I find that I am scratching the roof of my mouth with my tongue often which causes soreness.

Have U altered your diet recently?

Definitely, I've been getting it on and off for many years.  I always had recurring mouth blisters in reproductive years and HRT causes mouth sensitivity.  It's sometimes linked to burning mouth syndrome (particularly roof of mouth) which is very common.
