I’ve been using Oestrogel for nearly 18 months, increasing the doses over time, and have been on four pumps for most of this year. I’ve felt all sorts of improvements, and had got to the stage where I felt about 80% myself again. I’ve noticed that since I have been using the new Oestrogel pump (white lid, straight-sided bottle), some symptoms are returning. I’d wondered if each pump looked a bit smaller, but I’m not sure that’s it - it just doesn’t feel as effective. Has anyone else noticed this?
I’ve been a month or so on testosterone, so the timing of it is a bit annoying. I can’t tell if it’s my body getting used to the testosterone, or low oestrogen (it feels like the latter). None of the pharmacies near me have the old pumps so I may just need to try a patch instead….
