Hi Bellababe
I don't think we have spoken before so
.
I have only been using Estrogel for the last four months prior to that I had always been given Oestrodose at the chemist I regularly use but then out of the blue on the previous prescription I was given two containers of Oestrodose and one of Estrogel well the difference was amazing I had already made a GP appointment as I never really got on with Utrogestan either orally or vaginaly and was going to ask for Provera but mentioned that I had found Estrogel really good so my GP wrote on the prescription not Oestrodose I took the empty container to the chemist so I could show them what I wanted they only had one in stock and guess what when I called several days later I was given two containers of Oestrodose after a lot of bother I did eventually get the Estrogel the chemist kept insisting it was the same thing but it isn't there definitely a difference.
Now to the Provera I did try it on a conti basis for the first month but really didn't like it I think I must be very slightly progesterone intolerant so this month I decided to use it sequentially and this is the end of the first week and apart from a few wierd dreams the first couple of nights I feel great much better than I ever did using Utrogestan I have however increased my Estrogel from 2 to 3 pumps per day while using the Provera.
I only ever apply the gel in the morning in one go 1 pump top of each arm and shoulder and the other pump 1 split between my thighs I have never split the dose am/pm but I know some on here do.
Hope you feel the benefit of this combination as much as I have you have nothing to loose and possibly a lot to gain wishing you the very best of luck and do let us know how you get on.
