Go for it - see what happens.
I am currently on 2 mgs of Femeston orally AND 100mcg of patches. Very, very long story........see previous long posts of mine. 50 & peri
I now feel I am on the correct dose, all my symptoms- and they were the usual suspects, all of them-have gone, but it has taken about 12 weeks on this dose for it to happen.
Lots of people will say I'm nuts for going so high, well maybe- but I sure was nuts before with peri symptoms. Then I get people saying about breast cancer; indeed, I might be upping the risk, but importantly I might have got it anyway or might never get it and put up with awful meno symptoms, I might also get run over by a bus tonight. One thing is for sure, now symptom free I am enjoying life right now. Erica 28 (above) you are sooo right, I actually like feeling enamoured by the opposite again, haven't felt like it since my 20's LOL- I even jumped a 5 bar gate last week- not related to anything to do with the opposite sex, just the local cows!!!
I wonder sometimes if any of the ‘standard' doses are high enough. Many people on here are still riddled with symptoms.
I will start a controlled reduction in about a year, at least I will control my oestrogen decline and see what I am prepared to tolerate the ‘cost benefit' thing.
I am told, and read on here that once peri is done then it does become more ‘stable'
