Can the NHS check oestrogen levels
« on: September 22, 2022, 06:22:03 PM »

I have had feelings of too much cortisol for the last few months, even though it's been a year since I reduced my evorel to 25mcg.

25mcg is not enough to stop night sweats, however, bleeds happened at 50mcg and above, and scans showed small fibroids.

I wonder if my GP will be down with increasing to 37.5mcg, cutting a 25mcg patch in half-I can ask her.

They can certainly check to see if your levels are ok or of absorbing.

I’ve had it twice now.
