Title: increase in oestrodial - nervous
Post by: LW44 on June 14, 2016, 09:15:23 AM
Hi

ive just been to see my consultant - ism currently on 1mg climival - and i am peri - iam progesterobe intolerant so under supervision of consultant just in oestrodial.  my perscription was due for renewal and i mentioned ive not had period for 9 weeks.. usually have between  6 and 7 weeks plus felt hot flushes returning.. so he has advised to either take 2mg daily or 1mg one day then 2 the next.. he said my ovaries prob failing a bit more.. or could just be a temporary drop.. if i dont bleed in the next couple of months i may have to take some form of progrstrone.. ive also noticed not getting off to sleep as easily as usual.. drifting off then waking up.. like i do usually when due on..  im just a bit nervous about the increase and side effects , does anybody have an advice/experience? thank you

The Trial and Error can be tiring  :sigh:.  Do you keep a mood/food diary?  Maybe you will be referred for a womb scan to see if there is thickening ………

Let us know!
