Can utrogestan be combined with estradol pill

[sam7778]

Can I combine utrogestan with an Elleste duet estradol pill 1mg? If anyone knows please reply as I’ve come off combined hrt and started back on sequential hrt but the northiserone green tabs don’t suit me. So want to try utrogestan and maybe the patch or gel when it’s available but right now iam using the estradol 1mg pills.

If you do that, you will be throwing away half your pack of tablets.
Why not think about changing from tablets to patches or gel with estrogen only?

Yes, you can take the estrogen only tablets and Utrogestan BUT you'd need a dr to prescribe both and they might think that's a bit odd.

Yes that’s what I want to do but just for now I’ve gone back on the estrogen only tablets until I can get appointment with new gp to discuss going on the utrogestan with gel or patch then I’ll switch over straight away but at the moment the pills are fine it’s the northiserone that effects me worst. I e also got break through bleeding since I switched from my combined kilobance onto the elleste tabs 3 days ago , is this normal?

Hey I wanted to ask you. If I tell my gp that my period was more than 12 months ago will she still let me go on the sequential utrogestan and estradol? Coz it’s saying on Google that you take it as a combined medication together daily if you are post menopause. But if period was less than 6 to 12 months then it’s 2 capsules of the utrogestan for 12 days then the estradol gel or patch. I prefer the sequential really.

Yes you can stay with sequential. I have for 14 years under atop UK meno consultant.
Your GP may start to say sequential has a higher risk of a thicker uterine lining but it's minute, doesn't really happen (much- at all) and sequential has a lower risk of breast cancer. (Most GPs won't know that.)

Ok thank you so much for this info and advice x
