Oestrogel advice please!
So long story cut short - I was on oral oestrogen for around a year, and it helped at first, but I gradually started getting awful symptoms at the beginning of this year that gradually led to me being barely functional. Fatigue, headaches, dizziness, depersonalisation, anxiety.
My endo did bloods and found low oestrogen levels. ( I’ve also had thyroid and adrenal gland tests - both were fine)
Now I’ve been on Oestrogel for 5 weeks and had a few days last week where I felt amazing and full of energy. I’m not sure if I pushed myself too much, too soon, but now I’ve crashed again. I’m not sleeping great, fatigued again, headaches, achy joints and some dizziness and nausea.
Someone please tell me this is a normal part of HRT adjustment because it’s becoming too much to handle!
Also - on merena coil for progesterone since Nov 25
