I had low level anxiety and night cold sweats with palpitations etc before I started the Evorel.
The first week I took it, I had a few dizzy, shaky moments...almost like I had drunk too much caffeine and I did have to go to bed early for the first week, feeling very tired and slightly out of it, but, I think I am very lucky as I have settled into it very well and my mood is the most steady its been for about 20 years.
Last week, I accidentally managed to shave half my patch off in the shower, so, as I was right in the middle of a 4 day patch change, I cut half a new patch and used that, rather than overdosing on a whole new patch...I did get a little shaky and dizzy for a day or 2 and I assumed it was just a little too much Evorel. But that settled very quickly and I am back on a very even keel...except for these damn zombie mornings from the Utrogestan.
I'm absolutely certain that I could feel positive results within a day or 2 of starting Evorel. I realise that some people dispute that the patches can work that quickly, but my night sweats stopped within a week and I started realising that I wasn't getting anxious at all after about 4-5 days.
My moodiness has levelled off totally, although I am only a week into my Utrogestan, and not looking forward to the withdrawal, which might change it all.
I'm definitely going to start using it vaginally and cut it too 100mg and see if that works.
I'm so sorry you're having issues on the Evorel. It's been like magic for me. I hope the 50mg is enough to settle you. x
