I know, I do wish we heard more about the fact it takes time for a lot of women to get it right. My life is drastically different to before HRT, but I’m on month 9, so it certainly isn’t quick. I wish I had known a bit more. I had about 2 months of much worse symptoms in some areas and other things that had resolved, so it is confusing and hard to know if it’s not enough or too much. I did tests after a certain time, around 6 months. I’m also hypothyroid, so it takes longer for a lot of us too. The estrogen seemed to make a difference, my medication needs reduced, but I was very anxious and jittery during that period I didn’t know that’s what had happened. I also stopped coffee and sugar so I didn’t have too many stimulants, although I drink coffee now. I would say that after just 6 weeks you should wait it out a bit longer, but obviously discuss with your GP or gynae next week. Unfortunately it does take time for oestrogen to optimise and while totally possible your dose may need reducing or even increasing, it may also just be your body adjusting to a sudden increase of something you were really lacking. It is such a hard time. I love the A Vogel YouTube channel for menopause, they have tips for everything you can think of. HRT is not magic, and we definitely can help ourselves in other ways.
