facial redness and rash, could this be HRT related?

[Canadawet]

I have started HRT 3 months ago, and since a week or so I have developed a facial rash that comes and goes, my face gets all warm and red and I have a few spots as well, a bit itchy, it looks like quite severe rosacea, could it be due to HRT? I feel so much better on it apart from that, my energy level is great, I sleep through the night, I don't have this heat intolerance anymore, but if I get disfigured I am not sure it is worth it. The notice mentions skin rash, but more at the site of application of the patch. Any advice gratefully received. thanks

I think it may be a coincidence. Rosacea is something that can be triggered by meno in lots of women so maybe soon the HRT will help it? See a dermo if it carries on?

Well I just read now that sometimes HRT helps and sometimes it triggers rosacea on a NHS website. I think I will stop HRT (and coffee) for a bit and see if it helps.

Did stopping help

Know this is a very old thread but I’m experiencing the same problem. Just started HRT a month ago, feel much better but my facial skin is red and painful. Did you stop and did it help?

They might have left though.

Me too! HRT with great results with hot flash, blood pressure, heat palpitations BUT I also have a facial rash! I have eliminAted all other possibilities. Hoping for an answer
