Anyone on Femoston?

I’ve started taking HRT this month and had just made the switch to the grey progesterone tablets. I feel awful, and it’s been 3 days of them now. I started taking HRT primarily due to hideous menstrual migraines but this seems to be making things worse not better! I feel sick and headachy constantly.

I guess I have to keep going with it, but I’m working if this is going to happen every time I make the change from one tablet to another - surely it’s confusing for our bodies to have a sudden change every 2 weeks?

I was on Femoston 1/10 for 4 years and now on ultra low conti.
I do remember being wobbly emotionally for the first couple of months on sequel. I had an upset tummy for a little bit at the start and a slight spaced out feel. All that wore off. I didn't have the headaches though, so keep an eye on that.
Changing to conti I had some symptoms but now on month 4 and touch wood ok.

Thanks, I’ll try and stick with it…I’m just worried my body will get confused every fortnight when the tablets change, but maybe it will be ok. Anything has to better than the hideous peri migraines anyway!
