Title: Help....changed to Evorel 50
Post by: Friendlygal on July 05, 2019, 05:46:16 PM

Hi
I've had several attempts with hrt but none suited me better than Elleste solo. Absolutely no side effects unlike all the others I've tried. No flushes, no weight gain, improved mood, no sore boobs or feeling bloated.
Attended my gp's today for a review but was informed that there is a manufacturing problem with them. I literally broke down!
She has prescribed Evorel 50 and I am in such a panic worrying that that all of those symptoms will return.
Does anyone have any experience of these please or can anyone recommend what worked best for them?
Thank you

I've discarded the box now but I'm sure it was 1mg

Hi you can get an equivalent tablet to the 1mg and it's called Zumenon.

If you were on 1mg patch then Evorel 50 is a higher strength oestrogen . Evorel 25 is equivalent to a 1mg tablet x
