I hope someone has some suggestions as I'm confused 🤷♀️
First had Evorel Sequi 50, but reacted badly to the progesterone phase, swollen, painful breasts, leg pains, feeling generally off. Although the 2 weeks of estrogen felt really good.
Was convinced into having Mirena, which to be honest was not keen due to having it years ago for a short time before having it removed.
Had it since May, had initial spotting, nothing major and nothing since. But old meno symptoms started to come back after about 3 months so changed patches to Estradot 75, they seemed to strong (very tender breasts and bloated) so went back to original Evorel 50 took for a month or so but felt as if I wasn't taking estrogen at all, now back on 75, but the last 3
Weeks feel crap again, hot and sweaty, anxiety creeping back and just not good anymore. I have also noticed my hair is thinning around the front (always had a widows peak which has completely disappeared over the last 6 months) and I feel sexless if that's a thing!!
So, is it the Mirena?? Or the Estrogen??? Or both
I know it's not a cure all but I initially felt great on the patches, apart from the 2 progesterone weeks and now I don't ?? I've booked in with GP but appointment not for 3 weeks.
Any thoughts??
Thanks all and a happy new year to you all
