Hi - I was prescribed Elleste Duet originally but due to access issues was changed to Novofem 1mg.Every time I start on the progesterone cycle I get awful headaches and reflux ( but mainly manageable ) I discussed with GP about an oestrogen patch and Utrogestan 100 mg. She has now put me on this regime with a 25mcg patch of Estradot. I started with my first patch on Thurs - I have had the most awful headache and just feel generally rubbish. More rubbish than when I was on the Novofem! I am trying to establish is it the patch ? Lower dose of oestrogen or is it the
progesterone ?? I thought I might
tolerate the Utrogestan better as have been told this regime is the gold standard ! Is it just a case of settling down on this? I have an interview on Tues and I can barely concentrate ☹️Any advice ?
