Evorel patch & utrogestan question

3 replies

I'm 48 and have just been given HRT. I am still having periods.
Evorel 50 patches, no problem, change twice a week.

The progesterone is a utrogestan tablet 100mg.

From what the leaflet says and what I've read, you should take 100mg every day if you have stopped your periods, if you are still menstruating you take 200mg on days 14-28 of your cycle.

On my Dr's sticker I've read it says 100mg daily days 14-28.

I called the surgery to double check this on Monday and have had to chase a reply again today.

Am keen to know before I hit day 14 this weekend, whether it's 100mg or 200mg for me, so wondered if anyone else is on a similar prescription to me and knows about utrogestan.

Thanks.

It's 200mgs x 12 days. The leaflet used to say days 15-26 of a cycle. That's 12 days.

Take at bedtime as a side effect is dizziness.

@jinglinghellsbells, I'm onto my 3rd month of this now, Evorel 50 patch changed twice a week, and two utrogestan tablets on nights 15-26.
I haven't had any bleeding/spotting or a period yet, is this what happens?
