Can you stop absorbing patches ?.
« on: April 24, 2021, 09:34:12 AM »

I've been on Estraderm patches and utro sequentially over a year, went from 50 to 75''s. I have recently noticed waking at night wet with sweat also my hips are aching really badly, carpal tunnel is back too, all symptoms I used to get around period time. Could this be due to me not absorbingthe patches as well anymore ?. Should I try switching to a different patch like Estradot which I have heard is better absorbed ?.

It's more likely you're producing less yourself so require more. I would ask for a 100mg patch which is still within 'normal' range.

Thanks Sheila, it makes sense, I think the Estraderm mx 100 patch is massive though 😕 so I might ask to swapvto Estradot as it's small.
