Yes, my doctor has set it up as a repeat prescription and doubled the previous amount. :)

Mine didn't double it. In my first letter, I asked if I would get more pessaries to use more often as they were lower dose. There was a note attached to my Vagifem saying 10mcg twice a week was shown to have as much benefit as 25mcg!

Either go in and say does that makes sence so only Heart pills every 3rd day or HRT every 3rd day printout from net

Change your GP you dont have to be in pain and as long as oyu have your smear every 2/3 years which ever it is
Go see GP if your worried about anything then do it knowone should suffer but we dont count we are inviasable now

I would suggest giving it a go, to see if the lower dose does work for you.

If so, great - and if not, you will be presenting evidence to your doctor that you need a higher dose or a different regime.
