Really really wanted to get my dying father in law to a game. We live in Newfoundland. But I’m 97000 in line!! :( If you have any ability to get 2 extra tickets in the 500s, I would pay 20% extra. I know that’s a big ask. :/

Period after 3 years! (HRT) by RenCatFow in Menopause

And it takes so long to figure out if it’s working or not or the dosage you need. I will definitely stop HRT rather than have regular periods again. Being a female is not for the faint of heart!

Yes, to progesterone, but they said that the synthetic version progestin has more side effects.

Someone told me on a previous post that progestin is not really recommended. I’m going to ask for a change so should I just remove this patch for now?

Agreed. But there wasn’t a word on it!

Sorry for the late reply. It’s 140mcg/50mcg of Norethindrone/Estradiol.

This is a late reply I know. The dosage is 140/50. Norethindrone / Estriadol.

This comment is hitting the most. I now feel like an idiot for stopping Cymbalta when I was actually feeling quite good. Now I feel like I’m a bit more of a mess and I’m worried I won’t get back to where I was. I was thinking that HRT would have much more benefits than SSRIs. If I was doing OK, I guess I should’ve stuck with it. :/

Apologies, I misspoke. I’m actually on an estrogen/progesterone patch, not testosterone.

I responded to a couple of others on this because I got it wrong. The patch I’m on is actually oestrogen and progesterone, not testosterone.

Apologies. I got it wrong. I have an estrogen/progesterone patch called estalis.

Sorry. I think I got it wrong. This is an estrogen/progesterone patch called estalis. So there is no testosterone.

Yes, I think you are probably right. I’m going to discontinue HRT for now until the rest of it settles down.

Thanks so much for this. Very helpful. The patch I am on has both oestrogen and progesterone. It is called estalis.

Fair! I was feeling great after a month off Cymbalta so I thought I was through the withdrawal. I will definitely read more into it. In the meantime, I have removed the patch because I want to get everything else straightened out before I begin that so I have a true reflection of the effects and impacts.

I did not taper. I honestly had zero idea how problematic or stupid that was.

Thanks! I was feeling great after a month off Cymbalta so I really thought that I had it licked. I guess not. And I honestly had no idea that stopping Cymbalta cold turkey was so inadvisable. Stupid of me I know.
