Title: Oestrogen v Estrogel
Post by: Trixiebell on September 11, 2021, 06:51:58 AM

Hi , I’m on various forums for menopause
Ive been on Estrogel for 12 weeks my first batch clearly said Estrogel on the label but the prescription I picked up yesterday is Oestrogen

Tbh I’m not feeling the benefits of HRT has the formula been changed along with the labelling
I have been reading up on it and a lot of women feel that the formula has been changed and their symptoms have returned .

Hi Trixiebell, mine says OestrogeL not OestrogeN. It’s all I know so have no comparison. Your other post says you picked the new/different one up the day before and that you don’t feel the HRT as had bad sleep night etc. Can you feel the difference in one day? I’ve read others that say they can feel it in their bodies once applied but I can’t. It would be very helpful with getting right dosage if I could.

Hope your ok today. X

Sorry I mistyped the new bottle is Oestrogel, there has been a lot of hype that the ingredients have been changed
I’ve emailed my menopause Dr to see what her thoughts are on this matter
