Oestrogel and peri-menopause

I've just been prescribed Oestrogel (Eastradiol) and a progesterone tablet as I'm peri-menopausal. I'm 48.

Having read through the leaflet that came with the Oestrogel, I see it is meant for post-menopausal women. So now I'm anxious about using it (peri-menopausal anxiety is hideous!)

My GP is incredibly hard to contact and it's taken me weeks to get the prescription sorted.

Is anyone else on Oestrogel to relieve peri-menopausal symptoms? I'm after some reassurance from fellow users.

Yes, that’s standard. Download the Balance app and read up on it. The leaflets are out of date.

Excellent, thank you so much.
