Estrogen patch
« on: February 04, 2022, 10:57:12 AM »

Hi all
Is there an estrogen only patch that you can use with utrogesten?
I have had no sympton releif from gel/spray but wondered if I should try a patch before going for the implant?
MS hasnt suggested this as previously I was on a combined patch but she didnt like the progesteron in that one so moved me to gel.
Does anyone know if estrogen affects anti-depressants? I am on mirtzaphine 15mg but dont like how it makes me feel (angry, empty inside) I have been trying to withdraw but this appears to be quite difficult - only been on since June/July. It targets histamine receptors apparently and I'm not sure if estrogen is making withdrawal symptons worse.
One day I hope to wake up and feel human again - thanks all x

Yes there is an Oestrogen only patch.  It comes in 4 strengths 25, 50, 75 and 100.  There are various manufacturers....Estradot, Evorel, Femseven... https://www.menopausematters.co.uk/treatafter.php have a look at this link.
