Thank you, I guess I'm just frustrated! I've been battling this for so long. My family think I'm barmy, and so do my collegues at work. So, menopause is affecting my brain. Yes, I would prefer to be on HRT. But after the withdrawal of (cant remember name) I was on and off for several years, I was put onto Eleste duet. Was on 1mg for a couple of years but didn't help symptoms. So put on 2mg, both 1mg and 2mg gave me Breakthrough bleeding (sometimes like a period) after 21 days and general bloating and the 2mg invoked very painful lumpy breasts. Ive always been eostrgen deficient and suspected Endometriosis (but never diagnosed). Eleste just brought all the Endo symptoms back. I'll ask about Femaston.
