Title: Vomiting/Diarrhoea on Oestradiol?
Post by: Stargazer on July 19, 2023, 06:33:38 PM
I have been on Lenzetto Spray x 4 since November.  Hysterectomy in May brought back all Meno symptoms and specialist prescribed 6 sprays daily (GPs can only prescribe 3 maximum).  For the last 7 days I have had nausea with vomiting/diarrhoea if I eat anything that is not bland.  Given a stool sample to GP incase of a bug.  Anyone else had this with high levels of oestradiol?

Awful.  The Pill caused nausea and dry retching - Mum thought that I was pregnant  >:(

If you went to 6 pumps immediately no wonder your gut is reacting.  There's a reason why GPs prescribe 3 initially.  What 'speciality' advised 6 pumps?  Gynaes often don't know much more than GPs!

MayBe drop a pump on alternate nights until you get to 2.  Then see how you feel?
