Sequi is 200mg x 12 days (days 15-26). You carry on with your normal oestrogen all the time. They told me long term sequi gives you a slightly higher risk of endometrial cancer but I can't see it making any difference for a couple of cycles (we've done it that way for 30+ years after all). Some people get withdrawal symptoms for a few days but I don't think it's very common.
 Hope you're OK CLKD, at least you have the hotel to escape to.

thanks sheila99, its something to keep in mind x

Clkd don't feel under valued!, I obviously do not know your personal life but you are a world of support on here and I thunk thays amazing..
Disco girl...
I do feel for you and know also how you feel...the dread feeling and the constant juggling of symptoms and hrt and meds it's exhausting..I have only had 1 week out of 8 feeling semi normal...now trying splitting my gel to morning and night... and upping my AD to see if it helps...
Its very very hard to fine the solution. X

Hi mariab,

It is really hard to figure out what's causing it sometimes as well;

I have found MM an amazing site and it helps just to know your not alone sometimes doesn't it xx

Hey, I went on hrt back in july last year and thought for some reason (I don't even remember why) that I'd stop it!? After a few days I started experiencing the WORST and most disproportionate anxiety I've ever had. I've been able to deal with anxiety all my life but this oof.

I then decided after a month of that I would go back on it, and have been on it 3 months today, but my body has sort of shut down, my mind as well, in this time - I can't eat, sleep well, or be sociable without getting anxious, even walking down the road has become a huge chore. I wondered if I should up my estrogen from 2 to 3 pumps a day?! This is horrible D:

Hi abarthsister

I'm so sorry you're feeling like this, its' really awful.

I'm not very experienced really so hopefully someone more experienced will come along and help.

But you're not alone in this and I really hope you feel better soon xxx

Hi sheila99

 I think I might do a couple of cycles just to see if it is the utro that's causing this, so just to check I'd be doing it right.

As I'm post meno, would I just basically pick a date to start this? So I would basically take the oestrogen and utro 200mg for 12 days so say 1st to 12th October I would take the oestrogen with 200mg of utro, then after the 12th day I would stop the utro and continue with the estrogen until say the end of October, then come the 1st to 12th November I would take the utro again and then stop the utro after the 12th day continue with the estrogen and then on 1st December to 12th December restart the utro?

Sorry if I sound thick but my mind just doesn't work anymore xxx

Better to be sure! Oestrogen is taken all the time, it's only the utrogestan that starts and stops. If you stop utro now you should bleed in 2-3 days. The first day of the bleed is day 1 and you take utro days 15-26. It's possible your lining is thin enough at the moment there won't be enough for a bleed in which case I would call day 1 three days after you stopped utro. Let us know how you get on.

I think increasing is a good option. Insomnia can be a symptom of low oestrogen too. You may like to split it so you get a more consistent dose.
