Hello ladies,
I have a question (another one, hahaha!)...
Sorry for repeating this post, but I'd really like to chat to others in the UK (I'm in France and not sure the HRT regimes we have here are as modern as at home) about the progesterone-only pill and oestrogen gel.
My gyne just made me come off the POP and gel for a week to see if I was post meno (it was brutal, I don't advise it!). I'm not (FSH 7,4 + oestradiol 158) but she agreed to let me go back on the gel but ONLY 1 PUMP a day and the pill. She said that if I had a coil fitted (tried it, can't deal with the contractions) I'd be able to increase the gel no problem. She says that the POP + 1 pump will protect me from pregnancy but 2 pumps won't. She hasn't given me progesterone because she says there is enough in the POP.
Does this sound right to you all? It sounds a bit hardcore to me that I'm only allowed 1 pump of the gel and that that's my only option (apart from getting the Mirena) until I'm post meno.
Thanks for reading my post!
