Title: Elleste duet 1mg
Post by: Vickylo on October 06, 2018, 08:33:46 PM
Good evening ladies. I wonder does anyone feel better on the green tablets more than the white tablets? I do! Fsh 98 doc says def post but put me on the bleeding tabs rather than the other ones that doesn't cause a bleed due to my age, 47. Would I be better on them ones that do not cause a bleed? Any advice would be welcome xxx

It partly depends how you feel on the different tablets as wellas whether you are post-meno or not. Also the docs can't diagnose whether or not you are post-menopausal based on FSH levels because they vary so much and the ref range does not include peri! If you have not had a natural period for 12 months prior to starting HRT and not on mini-pill/Mirena then you are considered post-meno and can start on a no-bleed HRT. However some women prefer to remain on cyclical HRT even when post because they prefer to be on the oestrogen only pills as they feel better. I don't know what the different colours are?
