Sorry Goosieloosie I missed this. If you were going to try 40 mcg and they are available you could try these , or maybe you mean 80 cut down to 50 ? You can always keep the pieces as they are easy to cut and peel off...I am saving all my 20 mcg bits! Actually I think I get more oestrogen from the Elleste than I did from estradot although I prefer the tiny ones. Maybe the same for you? Hope you manage to sort it!

Hello there Hurdity, I actually meant to cut down the 80 to 50 if my Dr would prescribe this size! I was worried she might not agree thinking it's a waste of money. However, since reading on here a few days ago that Evorel 50 was back in stock last Friday 14th I got straight onto my chemist to see if they could get hold of them, when they said they could I jumped straight on the phone to my GP & got the prescription changed to Evorel 50 for 3 month's! So far the chemist has only one box but they said they were expecting more deliveries today, so let's cross fingers

. When I first began my HRT journey 4 & half years ago I began with Evorel conti so I'm guessing size wise they'll be very similar. Let's hope this shortage for all patches comes to an end very soon, it's added stress that we just don't need. Even ringing back & forth to chemists & dr's surgery I have found stressful & like I'm being a nuisance
