Morning ladies
I'm now a year down the road with trying to find a replacement hrt for the Prempak I was taking for a number of years. I've tried several different regimes both conti and sequi and although a couple of them have helped with symptoms to some extent, all of them have caused digestive problems for me which has mostly been the reason I have stopped taking the meds. I've also tried having a complete break from everything and although I feel much better for a while, the old meno symptoms soon start to creep back in so I don't think this is an option for me.
So, this week I've tried Premarin again as I understand this is more like Prempak with Utrogestan which I plan to take for the last 12/14 days of cycle. At the moment it hasn't affected my stomach like the plant based meds did but I have to say I don't feel great. My joints are aching, constant headache, nausea and the biggest spot I've ever had has appeared on my face 😳 The thing I'm not sure about is whether I might be getting too much estrogen or not enough to cause these side effects. I'm on the 1.25mg.
I was wondering if anyone else has had any experience of Premarin and, if so, how long it took for things to settle, if in fact they did? I have searched Premarin on here but I can't see anything that really answers my question so any advice you can offer would be greatly appreciated.
Thanks ladies.
