Hi EllaAurora, thanks for sharing that. Interesting that you felt anxious and jittery when applying all pumps at once - were you doing it at night by any chance (I ask, because when I first started with Oestrogel (2 pumps) and Utrogestan, I used the lot at night and had the same reaction, really wired and uptight and unable to sleep so well, switched to pumps in the morning and prog at night and that alleviated the problem.)
Thanks for telling me about the 24 hour thing - my concern was that applying all the gel in one go that by the time the next day comes around the oestrogen will have if not all gone, then have weakened and won't be doing the job as well. I have no specific symptoms to support that just curious as to whether I'm getting the full benefit. You would expect it to last at least 24 hours though.
By the way, isn't it a faf having to apply gel, I always think I'm wasting some or not getting it right, much prefer just chucking a pill down my throat and being done with it
.
When I get brave enough to try splitting again I'll certainly let you know
