Hi I was on Estrodot 50 (I have a Mirena) and the first 3 months I felt great. Lots more energy, sex drive through the roof (too much, at times) and could really feel it working. Then it seemed to suddenly stop, so much so that I wondered if I got a dud pack. Next month it was the same and horrible, drenching sweats returned when I exercised lightly.
I went back to my GP and she put me on 75mg, but although it's helped the excessive sweating, I didn't feel as good as I did initially on the starting dose. I've a lot of aches and pains back too.

Does it sound like my body had adjusted or do I need to revise the dose again?

I'm similar to you. Mirena plus Evorel. I started on 50 and felt great at first but the good feeling tapered off. I've moved up to 75 and that seems to have done the trick for me. If I were you I think I'd ask to try 100. Or use 2 x 50 patches if you've got some left over and see if you feel any different. It's a bit of trial and error I think.
