Title: Femseven Conti patches and periods
Post by: scoobylyn on January 23, 2016, 07:48:27 PM

This is my second month on femseven patches.  My GP wanted me to swap to elleste 1mg but after advice here I carried on.  Last week I was so tearful, very sore breasts.  I had lots going on family wise that was stressful so put it down to that.  This morning I woke up to a full blown period, and bad cramps.  I'd forgotten how bad they could be.  Hopefully it'll settle down.

I am on these at the moment and not getting on too well with them, my tummy is hard and bloated, I've had headaches, migraines, mood swings and today I feel sick. I did have bleeding for the first 2 weeks but at least this has settled down now. I'm gong to see my GP next week to change to something else,I can't stand it any longer. Oh and to top it all off I'm allergic to the Femseven patch aswell (nasty rash) just hate being on this, was on Evorel before Femseven and I wasn't as bad on that.
