Title: Help - Advice on Utrogestan please
Post by: Jules53 on June 07, 2019, 08:06:30 AM

Hi ladies

Me again sorry. Didn't take the Utrogestan last night. I feel quite nauseous this morning, spaced out and still a bit anxious (but not as anxious as I did yesterday). I feel quite wobbly too.

A question - should I stay off it until I see the doctor on Monday and keep the Evorel 50 patch on, or should I stop the patch as well and speak to her on Monday? Have been on both 10 days.  Really don't know what to do😢.

Thanks x

Hi keep the patch on. You need to have a steady state of hormones or your body will get totally confused. You need to give any hrt 3 months to see if it works. What you are experiencing may well be your menopausal symptoms and nothing to do with side effects from the hrt x

Thanks Dotty.

I had increased anxiety and felt really tense and irritable so I thought maybe the Utrogestan was causing it. I didn't use it last night and don't feel as uptight today, just really tired. I don't know if I'll be able to cope with Utrogestan continuously so should I speak to my doctor about doing a shorter cycle?

Just can't seem to get things right.

Thanks.
