(I say newbie but I did try the patches a few years ago but didn't carry on for long)
Hi, I'm 49 and after months of anxiety, brain fog, insomnia, fatigue and lack of motivation I was put on HRT. I've been given Evorel Sequi and after a few days I literally felt like a new woman! My sleep hasn't improved much yet but the anxiety has lifted, my energy and motivation has been amazing and I just generally felt happy again! That's was until the day after I changed to the Conti patch which is the progesterone/oestrogen one. I've woken this morning with instant and awful anxiety 😩😩 I've always been sensitive to hormones and this happened when I tried them before. I am waiting for an appointment to have the Mirena fitted so I can just be on the oestrogen only patches! I'm just not sure whether to carry on or stop and wait for the coil. Any advice is welcome! Thanks ☺️
