Just to add that the dosage given for oral HRT is much higher than for transdermal as much of it is lost in the digestive process when taken orally, so you can't really compare them.
Micronor is norethisterone
If you look at the HRT preparations containing this, all the low dose and medium dose tablet HRT give 1 mg norethisterone for 10 days - this is 1000mcg
The equivalent patch is Evorel sequi which gives 170 mcg norethisterone in 24 hours, for 14 days per 4 weeks.

less progestogen than the equivalent pills - so I would suggest that maybe it's not enough! Having said this norethisterone is a very powerful progestogen for thinning the lining. Micronor used to be available as part of HRT but it was 1 mg (1000 mcg).
The progestogen in Femseven is different and the dose can't be compared.
The licensed progestogens to use with oestrogen are listed here:

Some GPs should really up their game. They are doing women a great disservice by allowing their egos to get in the way of giving us the treatment we deserve!! They are general practitioners after all, and if they don't know enough about it, should refer you on to someone who does. Most of us have picked up a great deal of information from this site alone. Why couldn't your doctor do the same?
