I started HRT after hot flushes got th better of me.
Managed to get to a Menopause clinic who prescribed me with Oestrogel & Utrogestan - 4 pumps & 14 days per mth of 200mg.
My Dr was a bit reluctant to prescribe me the 2 x bottles a mth so I thought I'd better reduce to Oestrogel to 2 pumps a day (as per the leaflet)
I've been doing this since July & 2 things have happened. I've had terrible spots, on my face & legs in July. The Utrogestan seemed to put a stop to this but unfortunately, August was the same, although no leg spots 
I'm now about 10 days into the Utrogestan & for about 2 weeks I've started having a few hot flushes day & night. I've upped the Oestrogel to 4 pumps a day again in the hope that this remedies this.
I've emailed the clinic asking for a phone consultant but not heard anything back.
Am I doing the right thing with upping my dosage? Have my oestrogen levels dropped?
Thanks for any advice.
