Hi Jules53
I was on Femseven patches ages ago, but they really didn't suite me, constant migraines, and feeling of pressure all the time on the left side of my head, I just couldn't carry on with them.
So, I went onto Femoston Conti, which still caused me migraines at first, but settled down quite quickly,
although I do know what you mean about the stomach issues, thankfully, they've settled down too, only occasionally do I get that.
I also went onto Sandrena gel, and Utrogestan, but the Utrogestan made me feel like I going to pass out, just like you experienced, only I was at the supermarket, and felt like a right Burke. Lol
Maybe you can try separate oestrogen/progesterone. That might be better for you.
I know lots of ladies do that and the beauty in the separate prog is that you can either take it orally, or vaginally.
Good luck, keep us posted...
