Lovely ladies could I run something past you please.  Could be kind enough to give your opinion on whether you think the following symptoms which have been ramping up over the past months are due to high or low oestrogen levels.  I am someone who re-acts to the slightest dose change in oestrogen doses unfortunately. I was changed onto Lenzetto but felt diabolical on it sadly and so swapped back onto Estradot.  Dose at the moment is one 37.5 patch plus another half of a 37.5 patch. (56)
Night sweats and feeling hot. (well aware that is classic for low dose but I have had these when going up on doses as well)
Anxiety
Bloating and cramping
Brain fog
Difficulty concentrating
Sleep disturbances
Headache
Ectopics
Vag dryness (am treating separately)
Feeling a bit shaky and lightdeaded  (BP is fine)

Thanks so much would be so grateful for your thoughts xx

Hi there, not wanting to make it more complicated but I remember in the early days of the pandemic an awful lot of us had a return of symptoms both after a dose of the virus and also after our vaccinations. I'm pretty sure this still happens, it's just we're not talking about it anymore.
Might be just worth taking it into account. Seems to me like there have been a lot of summer colds and flu knocking about  which are probably COVID..
I had a return of symptoms a while back and faffed around with my dosage etc but then it all settled down by itself and I wondered if it had been virus related!

For me those symptoms would be low oestrogen.
