Increasing HRT

Hi I am prescribed 100mcg patches, but about 6 months ago started cutting up old spare patches to increase to 125mcg as symptoms reappeared ( insomnia, night sweats, anxiety). This worked for a while but I have found I have to go up to 150mcg now. I take 100mg utrogestan daily. I feel I need to see more of a meno expert than the GP. Has anyone any experience of increasing HRT above 100mcg ?
Thanks

If it's above 100mcg a day, then the latest advice is you may need to increase the progesterone, as 100mcg is the highest licensed dose (when using 100mgs Utrogestan.)
