Title: Starting back on Estrogel
Post by: Tinkerbell on July 01, 2022, 01:20:19 PM

That is if i can get hold of it!

I have been off of Estrogel for a few months, after successful Mirena insertion yesterday i want to start Estrogel again.

I was on 3 pumps, GP said to start with 1 pump and increase gradually but didn't say over how long and i can't remember from when i started it 6 years ago.

I was on Femseven patches for a few weeks but after bad reaction to adhesive i have been on nothing for 4 weeks.

Try one pump for 2 weeks.

Then two pumps for at least 6wks, then 3....
