Feeling so Ipoorly the last few days on oestrogel. Been on it a few weeks now, initially felt good on 2 pumps, then during ovulation I felt extremely ill. I restarted on just one pump and I feel sick, shaky, depressed anxious and have a headache. Don't think I can tolerate it. Should I carry on or quit?
Had bloods done recently. Day 3 of cycle oestradiol was 132. I don't know if this is high or low

So sorry you are feeling bad hun....i cant really give advice as i am only 4 weeks in on 4 pumps.
But do let me know how you get on xxx

My legs are like jelly and I feel really panicky. Think I need to stop. I haven't eaten for 3 days just feel so nauseous
-
Is there anyone who prescribed you can phone for advice? Gp? Meno clinic?
-
My GP. I can't get an appointment unless I try at 8 in the morning.
-
Can you manage that or is there someone who can for you....at least doing the waiting bit which I know is draining as same system here.

Hoping I feel better in the morning. Leaving the gel off tonight

132 is low. Given that you did feel good I would think either you've developed an allergic reaction to it or you have caught a bug. I woud stop for a few days until you feel better then start again on a low dose and see if it happens again. Is it related to when you're on progesterone if you use a sequi regime?

Hello, no its just the gel. I take the utro again next week. I feel terrible today. Rolling panic and adrenaline and nausea.
