For those of you that use different amounts of Estrogel at different times of the month, can you share when you increase and when you decrease?
I find I have a few great days followed by several more awful ones, and I wonder if the awful ones need a top up—but for how long, I’m not sure. I can top up but don’t know when to back off. With the Mirena, I don’t have a flow but I do seem to have somewhat of a cycle going in terms of mood/cramps. I don’t want to raise and lower estrogen to match what would naturally occur because the roller coaster has been super rough for me (especially the week before a period). Ideally, I’d like to establish a more even keel, not over serving E on the already good days, and topping up the low days. Does anyone have a rough schedule or one that has really worked for them? (Knowing this is all a shot in the dark with no flow/menopause and all the unknowns.)
