Title: Advice needed please
Post by: mollymoo on January 11, 2016, 04:12:54 PM

Hello Ladies,
                  I have picked up my new HRT (Tridestra) today but I'm in two minds if i should start this yet, the reason being
                  is i have a Mammogram booked for next Tuesday and I'm not to sure if the change from Conti 1/5 to 2mg Eastrogen
                  only will cause me to have sore swollen boobs :boobs:.
                  Any advice or experience on this would be very much appreciated. :)
                   Thanks Michelle x

You could ring the Dept. and ask the question?  Let us know.

Sounds like a sensible suggestion. If it were me I would wait, because as you say there are likely to be temporary breast changes if you change HRT and you want the mammogram to be as easy to read as possible

Hi there I am about to start Tridestra - first pill today - but nervous as Elleste Duet made me crazy! How did you get on with it?
