Title: Estradot
Post by: Tinkerbell on May 03, 2016, 09:33:03 AM

I have been useing a 50 Estadot patch for nearly 3 weeks.

I decided to give it a try as I need Vagifem for  VA every day and even with that amount I was still getting a bad blip every three weeks or so.

Also have been having problems with palpitations.

Am I expecting to much to soon  :-\ I have no improvement in palpitations and I have had a bad weekend with soreness again.

I was led to believe by meno clinic that it would sort it all out and I would be able to cut Vagifem down.

Give it time! 3 weeks isn't very long. If there is no improvement in 3 months, then see your doctor again to reconsider your prescription.

No I am still using Vagifem every day, just was led to believe I wouldn't needed so much.
Have seen cardiologist about palpitations a few years ago and although I have a very mild heart defect he was not
concerned...although I am thinking of asking for another check up.
