[quote=Anonymous]Started out with Sandoz .0375 early April 2024 (already was on 100 mg progesterone nightly and vaginal Estrace cream 2x week) since UTIs increased. Have put on 1 lb/week since I started (and eating habits did not change). Gained 8-10 lbs since the beginning So I wrote to GYN asking to switch to lower dose estrogen patch (.025?) and CVS filled the script 2 days ago (Mylan brand). (GYN said metabolism does slow down as we age so patch dose might not make a difference). I put the Mylan patch on and now have had weak period-like cramps and gasiness last 4 days (and I've already had a total hysterectomy/kept ovaries 19 yrs ago). So am going to go patch cold turkey until my annual exam (8 weeks from now) to see if I can get rid of both the weight gain/period like cramps/bloating. [/quote]
