gel causing anxiety
« on: April 05, 2017, 08:54:12 PM »

Just wondered if anyone else experience's this as  I have noticed when I put my gel on at night I get high anxiety kick in, is this normal?  I am using 2 pumps, messaged my consultant & she said thearlier anxiety should not increase on application.

Hi Dee,

Used Oestrogel for a few years. Always found when I applied 2 pumps in the morning 2 hours later my anxiety was in the roof, settled in the afternoon.

Hope this helps Wx

Thanks for the info, did you ever settle on the gel or did you move onto another hrt? I am 9 weeks on the gel & still got anxiety most of the day so getting really frustrated now, I put it on at 9pm & then the anxiety can get worse, wake up with the dreads, anxious, nauseous & just generally unwell.

Stellajane

I could try that, do you think that way it would not be one big hit by having the 2 pumps in one go?

I noticed you also use Oestrodose & that some say that is not the same as Estrogel, I am using the same as you & also wondered because it is not the 'brand' that I may need to use the branded one, I get mine from Boots, do you suffer anxiety Stellajane or did you?
