Thinking of stopping Estrogel due to joint pain side.

I just don't know what to do. I'm 45 and have been on hrt for 6 weeks. I thought hrt would approve my joint pains but they are so much worse and are affecting every joint. I thought going from 2 to 3 pumps would improve things but they are a lot worse. Even every joint in my finger is painful
I had a Serum Estradiol bt and it has come back as 1500 so I'm thinking maybe I have too much Estrogen? I'm thinking of stopping as it is restricting me so much, I can't exercise either.

Hi there I think I have the same issue and it’s just getting worse! Did you find a solution in the end? Started estrogel 6 weeks ago and symptoms started one week ago.
