Title: After gel application spacey head
Post by: warwick01 on December 10, 2020, 11:22:00 AM

Morning

Just wondering if anyone gets a spacey head a couple of hours after Appling Oestrogel. I use 2 at night and Im ok usually go to bed within a couple of hours but when I apply 1 pump around 8.00am i get the spacey head and sweat at same time every morning from 9.30/10.00 very predictable as im usually doing housework or shopping. Feel better after lunch

Thanks Wx

? hormones ?  >:(  :-\ .  If it's predictable it must be the gel.  Does it say anything on the leaflet in the box?

Hi CLKD

Hope your doing OK??

It does say dizziness as side effect, like you say predictable. At first was thinking low blood sugar as it's along time between meals at least 10 hours with only a snack like half bagal at 7.00am. It must be the gel. Was thinking of trying extra 3 pumps at night... :o

Take Care Wx

There's brave  ::) - I'm fine.  Tnx.  Hate these weird reactions to hormones, no one warned me that I might feel like 'flu .......

Does the sensation improve at all ?

Maybe cut it down to half a pump for a few days and see if it settles?
