Patch came off 2 days ago- help
« on: August 27, 2023, 07:45:18 AM »

Hi all
As some may know, I’m struggling a bit to settle on HRT- am on 50mg patches and Utrogestan 14 days (as per docs instructions-I know it can be 12). I am crazy on the Utrogestan fortnight- anxiety through the roof and I have had enough. I was planning on going back to the GP this week to speak about it.
But I’m away for the weekend. My patch fell off on the hot tub on Friday night and I hadn’t packed more. I feel totally fine. In fact, calmer. I am going home today and I could put a new on one but my questions are:
a) if I put a new one on, do I now need to wait till my period starts as per starting again?
b) if I just don’t put one on and just stop till I see the gp- come off everything-is that mad? I had my first ever panic attack last Utrogestan fortnight and I do not want to repeat!!!

Any advice?

I would put another patch on right away so your body has the oestrogen. I have had patches fall of before and just put another one on.
