Cassie ...... So what would be the reason to take only 100mg instead of the usual 200? Is it because the side effects are too much for you on the full dose? (the worry i have is that my periods when i have them are heavy & long) Or are there other reasons to only be prescribed 100mg in peri?
But then the Dr had never heard of Utrogestan, never mind prescribed them & had to look on her computer for how many to give me, so i think it's more likely a mistake?
Anyway i will go back & ask, thanks ladies xx
Michelemabelle ....Yes, i'm hoping so, i know sometimes things start off well then go down hill but fingers crossed, so far so good!!
Before i went on the patches, for the last few months i had such bad low moods, felt irritable and edgy all the time, bad health anxiety, & hated everyone i knew, wanted to live on my own somewhere, and overthinking to the point where my brain felt like it was literally fizzing and would explode lol
........yet within 24 hours it all calmed & eased, and i'm definitely "starting" to feel like me again. I know it wasn't placebo because i wasn't expecting to even start to feel better for weeks or months, if it worked at all.
Mind you the hot flushes & nightsweats haven't improved much yet, nor the aches & tiredness etc, but it's just been almost a week so very early days. Fingers crossed it all improves in time x
