Title: Tostran Gel and bloating
Post by: debra217 on November 24, 2021, 03:01:05 PM

Hi all

Just added a small pea sized amount every alternate day to my current hrt regime of estradiol gel and provera tablets.  I've had a bit bloating and wind and wonder if this is normal and how long can I expect it to last?  No benefits from gel yet what timescale did people notice a difference if any?

Thanks

Hi is tostran gel the one with the little screw tops? I’ve been using Testogel sachets, so far 10 weeks. I definitely am finding an improvement regarding tiredness and my thoughts are sharper (if that makes sense) x
