Title: Femoston Conti
Post by: Oliversut01 on October 24, 2022, 01:09:51 PM
Just wondered if any of you lovely ladies have had experience of Femoston Conti with oestradiol 500 and Dydrogestoerone 2.5mg.  Have been battling with consistency of patches, most recently Evorel ones which I have 2 x 50 (just like the smaller ones rather than 100) twice a week with Utrogestan continuously.  Have had other patches and think my levels are up and down all the time (last blood test in march 216) and have always wondered if I absorb it properly.
Would be great to have some feedback on the above before I bite the bullet and change. :)

Hi, yes I’ve had the same issue with absorption of patches.
In April I started FC 1/5 and by June I was off it. My bladder issues returned with a vengeance and mood was dipping rapidly. I did quite like it though and was annoyed that the bladder didn’t! Not enough oestrogen probably.

Good luck 🤞

That's what I was afraid of, had issues with frequency and urgency but this has settled for a moment and don't want it to come back - will have to give it a go though as just seen consultant privately.
Thank you for responding.
