Hello all,
Anyone got any info on this? I was just wondering as I didn't have my levels tested before I was given HRT (originally lowest dose of Elleste Duet in Oct 2018 then switched to Femoston1/10 in Feb/March this year). I'd like to know what my levels are.
Some of you may know that it's been a bit of roller coaster for me. In general, I felt worse on HRT I'm afraid. I had side affects starting within a week of taking it and run the whole gamut. Fortunately, after having two periods in May I've had nothing since, yay! I've had some night sweats recently, anxiety, bad acid reflux, heart palpitations and my food won't digest. I had none of this before starting HRT. I'm not sure whether to ask my GP for an increase in the estrogen bit or to just come off it. I don't think with my stomach issues I'm absorbing the tablet form very well though strangely, the stomach/digestion pain clears up when I get onto the white estrogen tablets.
Would testing my levels show anything up? If they're 'low' then surely that would mean it's not getting through?
What do you think?
