Evorel 50 reviews

Reduced anxiety, depression and irregular heart rate

I have been using an evoril patch with progesterone minerva coil for two years. I had a progesterone sensitivity with oral & vaginal progesterone which resulted in bloating, constipation & poor sleep patterns & I was bleeding almost continuously. The coil was prescribed and my symptoms reduced to a bearable level but I continue to bleed. This has been attributed to an HRT imbalance & I have therefore gradually reduced my oestrogen patch from 75 to 25 micrograms over the last year. I’m still bleeding- not continuously but for about 2weeks every month to 6 weeks currently. I ache & I’m now very stiff if I sit/ lie down for a period but otherwise my symptoms don’t seem worse for reducing the oestrogen dose but nobody can explain why I’m still bleeding.

I don’t feel so different after using hrt. I am unsure if my minimal symptoms are down to menapause as it is. And I’ve added supplements to my diet which could be the reason for the improvements in my physical state rather than the hrt.

I started on a low dose of Evorel 25 alongside my Mirena IUD . After 3 months I was still suffering from insomnia, low mood, brain fog, anxiety, low libido, lack of energy, muscle pain and night sweats. My Evorel was increased to Evorel 50 and I was prescribed Tostran gel. Within a month I started to feel like me again and have never looked back. Tostran is sometimes hard to get and I have had to use Testogel at a half pump dose instead which isn’t very accurate on occasion. When my Mirena IUD expired last year and I was waiting for a replacement appointment I was swapped to Evorel Conti for 2 months and they didn’t suit me as many symptoms reappeared.

Overall I have found the HRT patches very good. I have currently increased to the 75ml due to my anxiety being worse again but have been told by my doctor that I can only be on these for 3 months. I find the patches easy to use but do have to put a reminder in my phone as I have forgotten to change it from time to time. I chose to go on HRT not only because of the symptoms I was experiencing, which have mainly been anxiety, brain fog, lack of concentration and poor sleep but also for the health benefits that they give you.
