Hello everyone,
I’m currently using 200mg Utrogestan vaginally which makes me feel much better until the 5th application & then it feels overwhelming. I tried 100mg Utrogestan vaginally and that made me feel much worse for some reason.
Someone I know said that their understanding was, if took Utrogestan by mouth the dose wasn’t as intense (i.e.) when inserted into the vagina the uptake of the hormone is greater. Does this. Resonate with anyone else as I’m wondering if taking 200mg by mouth might suit me better. I’m presuming the 200mg packs I get complete with vaginal applicators CAN be taking by mouth though??
I wonder whether I would fair better taking the 100mg by mouth also......no idea why using them vaginally for me makes me feel totally shocking (when 200mg doesn’t)....I’ve tried on 3 separate occasions now.
Do women generally on this forum take Utrogestan vaginally because it lessens the side effects?
Has anyone experimented with 100mg/200mg by mouth Vs vaginally? I know we all respond differently to the doses and methods but just interested to know how others have got on. I’m on 4 pumps oestrogel and want to be on a Conti regime now so another option is to take 200mg vaginally every other day (there’s still plenty in my system) or take it for 3-4 days, skip a day & then resume. Presumably taking 200mg vaginally every other day would be the same as taking 100mg vaginally every day (which doesn’t seem to be an option for me).
Thanks in advance for any replies xx
