Hi
New to this site. First time posting.. also fairly new to the world of HRT!
I have been on Evorel Sequi patches since about July. All good, felt better, lots of symptoms eased if not disappeared. I didn’t get any cyclical bleed the first four months.
I wondered if it might be possible to feel better as I still had some symptoms so returned to gp. Had a blood test which came back to show my oestrogen levels were very low (78, when they should be around 250, evidently).
So she prescribed me oestrogel 2x pumps daily alongside my Evorel Sequi. I read the oestrogel leaflet and it seems to suggest that you shouldn’t use the gel alongside a cyclical HRT, which is what Evorel Sequi is.
So now I’m slightly confused as to whether it’s ok to use the oestrogel simultaneously with the patches. Has anyone experience of doing this and is it ok? I have not used it at all so far. Just sticking with my Evorel Sequi.
Oh also, this month I have had some light bleeding on Evorel Conti part of the cycle, which I’ve not had before. I wonder if anyone can advise the best HRT to not have any bleeding. I’d had 9 months no period prior to that😬
Thanks for looking and for any useful advice you can give.
