Oestrogen patch - feeling rubbish
« on: May 14, 2017, 12:33:48 PM »

I have dropped down on my oestrogen patch, as i know my fibroids have grown. Im feeling pretty rubbish - fuzzy head, headache, vagueness and stomach ache. Also had couple of hot flushes, which i've not had before. What i would like to know is are these symptoms a side effect of getting less oestrogen from this patch? Or is it because the patch i'm now wearing isnt enough for what i need? I dont understand it enough to know, so any help please.

Usually when things like flushes return it means your dose isn't high enough x
