estradot 50 patch/estrogel
« on: April 21, 2020, 02:17:52 PM »

morning ladies

i?m confused 🤷🏼‍♀️ dosent take much !

if one pump gel is 0.75 mg and estradot 50 patch is 0.78mg does that mean for 2 pumps gel i would need 100 patch ?

i?m confused as i?m thinking of changing my gel to these patches but unsure really of what dose i would need x

can i swap straight onto the patch from gel or do i need to stop gel first ?

is estradot patch better in abdomen or bum to reduce bloating ? x

thank you

I prefer Estrogel, I didn't get good symptom control with the patch and the adhesive irritated my skin.
I have a Mirena for the progesterone component.
