Changing from pills to gel
« on: September 26, 2019, 03:43:14 PM »

Hi, hoping for some advice on what to expect. I have been on elleste/zumenon with Mirena for just over 5 years. For the last 2 years I have struggled with recurring symptoms.
I have today been to see Dr Julie Ayres (lovely lady 😊) and she has advised swapping to gel so my levels remain stable.
I am unsure what to expect, Dr Ayres said I may have a transition period until the gel builds up but I would be grateful if anyone who has changed to gel could tell me what to expect. Am worried all my old symptoms will come flooding back 😳.

Hi there - this is a duplicate of your other post in all things menopause so will answer on there and hopefully this one will be deleted!
