Hi SueLW
Sorry for late reply, only just spotted more on this thread.
I felt rubbish for 2-3 days after swapping from patches to gel. Unfortunately, due to supply issues, I was only on the Oestrogel for a month. Had to go back to Evorel 50 patches as couldn't get gel anywhere. I'm on Utrogestan 100mg which I take sequentially (to be honest every second day which suits).
I've realised that I'm very sensitive to hormonal fluctuations - about two weeks ago a patch came off after having a bath leaving me short on my prescription so I thought oh well, will put one on end of tomorrow instead. Five days later, extremely dizzy to the point couldn't walk straight and ended up nauseous and vomiting with a migraine! Lasted two days!
Have just been able to get Oestrogel again but will plan the changeover very carefully this time!
