Hi Ladies:
I've posted once before on here. I'm 47, early 48 and in peri. Since Early 2017 I've taken Elleste duet 1mg. It's stopped the hot sweats and insomnia but I'm so tired and grumpy on it.
After a lot of research I went to the GP last week and asked to switch to oestrogen gel and utrogestan. She didn't explain why but I came out with a prescription for destrogel which is the mini pill. She said it might help and a benefit would be no periods, plus if only have to pay for the gel as BCP free. I don't know whether to go back and further discuss why she didn't give me what I asked for or try the new regime. Anyone taken this combo and felt better? Things are stable with me if not great and I don't suddenly want a load of different side effects.
Thankyou for reading.
