Hello all you lovely ladies.....
So i have been having very upsetting and vivid dreams lately (I am currently coming down off a high dose - too high for me which was 75mg patch - now back on my 65mg since 8 weeks ago today)
Does anyone know what the cause of these are? Just to note i didnt have any of this prior to upping my patch (stupidly) which gave me horrid side effects - head lifting, floor moving etc. and was off work for 3 weeks!
All the head lifting has gone - took around 6 weeks to go, but now its the heavy sleep - dreams and a tiny bit of dampness on my chest.
I do think my patch isnt too low as i upped to 65mg around January time and was fine.
Are these dreams caused my fluctuations still until it settles you think?
Many thanks all - Vicky xxx

Does your patch include progesterone? That causes intense, vivid and often distressing dreams for me.

No it doesnt, I am on Yasmin combined pill - that i have been since Dec 2023 - all been perfect! No trouble on it from the very first day x
