Title: Evorel 50 patches.... fluid retention anyone?
Post by: Friendlygal on July 09, 2019, 09:18:57 PM

Hi
As mentioned in previous post, my gp has prescribed the Evorel 50 as Elleste solo which caused me no symptoms have a manufacturing problem!
However I am finding the fluid retention really difficult to deal with. Literally unable to get into my trousers today.
Is there anything I could take in your experience? Or will it settle down eventually do you think?

Your post got missed - I can't help sorry, as I've never had that experience re fluid retention due to oestrogen or anything as far as I know.  There are often side effects when starting a new HRT but hopefully it will settle soon?
