Side effects starting oestrogen
« on: June 25, 2023, 06:40:17 AM »

I started Lenzetto  x 1 spray 4 days ago (I can only take the smallest dose due to hyperplasia 2022 now resolved). I'm on a sequential regime with 200mg utrogestan (vag) for the last 2 weeks. So far I've felt less foggy but anxious where there was none, nausea in the morning, joints seem worse, bloated and my boobs are horribly sore. So basically worse than before. I sleep like a baby anyway but the last two mornings I have overslept. I thought this was what the progesterone did! Suitably confused. Will this settle?

Criky - if it aint 1 issue it's another  >:(.

Perhaps put the Lenzetto into the search box to see what pops up?  Which symptom of peri would you like to ease first?

I've had a browse but much of it is about people switching whilst already on gel or patches. Ironically aching joints is my worst symptom!
