Urgghh... I am sick of it all now.
I thought my body needed more oestrogen, so I upped my patch from 75 to 100.
I increased because I was still symptomatic.
Since upping the patch, I have felt ill. Nauseous, crampy. headaches, dizzy.
Went back down to 75, still feeling the same.
Yesterday and today, I feel very spaced out.
Can't focus, nauseous, irritable.
What it is going on?
I am 5 years post menopause.
I want to be free of hormones for sure, but my bladder goes into overdrive, despite using ovestin and vagifem everyday.
What can I do?
How can I get out of this perpetual cycle of HRT?
I just want to level out.
I have the mirena and would get shot of that too, but I can't risk it, in case I need oestrogen (utrogetan does not work for me).
I started HRT because of low mood, frequent weeing, poor sleep and aching joints. The only thing it has helped with in 4 years, is the frequent weeing!
I have tried patches, gel, tablets and spray.
