My Gp said it did but I’ve never seen or heard of anyone else saying it does.
You could try and if it’s not strong enough go back to both.
Anxiety can also be not enough oestrogen. For mood levels apparently need to be a bit higher. Around 400-600 though someone here said their consultant says 800
Hello
![Smiley :)](https://www.menopausematters.co.uk/forum/Smileys/extended/smiley.gif)
I did think about giving it a try, however, I am dependent on drugs that act on the same receptors as the metabolites of utrogestan, and, like other women, on a well known benzodiazepine support forum, and a couple on here, I fear that different levels of these metabolites will hit my GABA and destabilise me, like it did before, when I only took utrogestan for two weeks in a month in peri.
I also thought about not enough oestrogen, as I have been getting adrenaline surges in my stomach on the morning recently, just like I did when peri started.
With me bleeding on 50mcg I hope she will let me take an extra half patch.
I do get a brown discharge also, this last few months, I had bleeds, it's a right hassle, bleeds on a dose that I don't feel anxious on, and brown discharge on 25mcg, as it's not enough.
I don't know if the brown discharge is anything to worry about.
I agree my oestrogen levels could have dropped, but I think this is unusual at age 56, when things should be stabilising, as I come through a 13+year journey with menopause.
Sorry for the ramble.
