Hi I'm a Newby so please bear with me.
I'm 47 and just started Evorel Sequi. I would say I'm peri menopausal with very erratic periods with gaps of 6 months or 3 months.
My symptoms are night sweats, flushes, waking at night, joint aches, anxiety and irritability but because my sleep is disturbed this is all off the scale now ☹️
I exercise every week (circuits and yoga and walk).
When I started on the ‘oestrogen' patch I found I felt slightly better and my sleep was normal in fact most symptoms improved.
However when I started on the ‘progesterone/oestrogen' patch it all went pear shaped.
I haven't slept through the night now for over a week from really bad night sweats and just insomnia. I'm feeling very low.
I don't understand why this is happening as I thought too much oestrogen caused night sweats?
Why is the progesterone patch making me worse than before I started?
(Can't see my doctor for weeks and so have an appointment with another doctor who doesn't know me tomorrow.)
