Well I've moved onto the oestrogen phase of the Evorel Sequi, along with Evorel 25 as top up.......been fine on the combined patches, but started estradiol ones last night.
I had to whip off my bra an hour ago, breasts felt too big for it :o ;D And now it's off they are both aching. Then I'm talking on the phone to someone and got a stabbing pain down below, only for a few seconds but I've never known THAT to have a pain in it! :o ;D
Give it a bit more time I suppose.
Any thoughts?

Do you mean you started the month with the oestrogen/progesterone phase? It should be oestrogen for the first two weeks then the combi patches for the second two. Sorry if I've misunderstood.

I can't believe I typed all that the other day ;D
Yes, thanks Taz, I know that's the order of the patches, it was just I was given Evorel 25 to top up and I started topping up mid way through (so was on combined evorel sequi).
I've had a few interesting things I've noticed but I don't know if I'm just looking out for stuff because I had a benign breast lesion 10 years ago (doctors not worried about this with HRT).
Today I'm feeling sweaty and weak and unwell (but not ill, if you know what I mean), I don't know if menopause is hitting a bit harder, hence why I'd asked for Evorel top up. I haven't had these morning sweats for over a year since being on evorel sequi, but in the last week mornings have been difficult again and hot and sweaty. But a bit of an upset stomach as well so will just wait and see. Don't know whether to go straight to Evorel 50 top up. Will see.
