A year on evorel conti now hair loss
« on: October 03, 2023, 03:46:05 PM »

Hello all

I'm just after some advice. I've been on evorel conti about 16 months, after oestrogel and utrogestan stopped working for me.
I like it, I feel more balanced and felt like I had slightly more energy. I thought the progesterone part (norethisterone) was better suited.
However for about the last 2 months my hair loss seems to have increased. I have naturally white hair that us past my shoulders so I tried to tell myself it was just because I could see the hairs. But it us continuing. When I wash my hair or add product the hairs are tangled in my fingers and all day long I have hairs falling out.
I have no bald patches, have had thick hair up to now, but I feel it's now a problem.
I had covid in February ( I know that has affected some people with hair loss) .
So I know evorel conti can cause hair loss, would it be this over a year after starting on patches and if I wanted to try another patch, what would be a good one to request. I'm better going with an idea, rather than waiting for a Dr to suggest one.
Thanks for reading what turned out to be a long post x

There R several recent threads about hair loss and/or HRT.  If you do a search to find them you can make notes.

Thank you, firstly apologies I'm not sure why my post has gone up twice.
I have spent a couple of days going through posts about hair loss. But because mine is a year after going onto evorel I wasn't sure it was related.
Sorry if you thought I was looking for others to do the searching for me.

Jogawne, please don't worry.  If you contact Emma (admin) she might be able to remove the duplicate thread for you, if you'd like that.  I don't think anyone thought you were hoping someone else would search for you, we simply sometimes suggest a member do a search if we know there are other recent threads on the topic as this short cuts the need to wait for others to respond & could provide a range of opinions to read in super quick time  :).

Not at all, the search box can be useful if members don't get a response to queries.

All threads are related in that experiences shared can be helpful.
