Title: Hair loss - Envorel Sequi
Post by: LWiggy on January 11, 2021, 09:37:15 PM

Hi

I’m new to this site.

I started on Envorel Sequi patches approximately, 4 months ago. They have worked well to combat hot sweats, sleep and mood however, for two/three weeks now, my hair has been shedding terribly. Very distressing. 😢 I’ve stopped using the patches. My GP is looking into other possible causes.

Had anyone else experienced hair loss while on HRT patches? If yes, what was the solution, please?

Thank you.

Hi LWiggy, welcome to the forum. Hair loss is a tricky condition, thyroid issues can also be the culprit. If you're certain the patches have caused it you may try another HRT avoiding norethisterone as the progestogen.
