Hi pepperminty
Wanted to update you -
I went to my doc with the information about Ultrogestan & Oestragel, she told me she'd been researching HRT for a friend and agreed that I was experiencing a withdrawal,
thought it was the estrogen? She agreed to prescribe the 100mg X 2 Ultrogestan Tablets for 14 days and 2 pumps of the Oestragel daily. (is that equivalent to 2mg of etrogen? as thats what I was on with the femostan

)
Interestingly, she also told me to call a private health clinic in Dublin for advice on bio identical hormones. The receptionist there was very helpful, (after I nearly had a heart attack at the price for attending the clinic there) - she said my own doctor was very well informed as the products she had recommended ( Utrogestan & Oestragel) were two of the HRT's that the doctor at the clinic would prescribe!) I told her it was advice i got from menopause matters not my own doctor lol
Anyway today I started with the pump, I was only on day 10 of the femoston packet and just switched over to the gel. I'm expecting a bit of a rough patch but hoping to regulate eventually to meet my present needs.
Thanks for your help, I'm hoping the changover period wont be a long one! I told my husband & family to get prepared lol xox
