Cutting the patch in half !
Posted , 5 users are following.
Spoke to my dr and I can’t take the dark moods from this patch so we decided to cut it in half for now .
Not sure if she knows what she’s doing and wondered if anybody else felt very depressed and dark on the patch ... or if anybody had cut it in half .

I cannot take HRT because I have fibroids and the last time I took it I had terrible fatigue and my hair became very brittle and started to fall out.

So you cut it in half and it worked better for you ? Yes within 2 weeks I had 2 periods when first starting. Fed up of all this crap. Just want to feel ok ... don’t need to be jumping through hoops just ‘ok’ I’ll be happy with .

I have had a similar experience in the sense of wondering if my doctor knew what she was talking about and being told to cut the patch in half!
She expected me to not change the patch after a shower! She loves to prescribe as little as possible which I think gets in the way of her doing her job properly.
For me cutting it in half didn’t work.
You need a new half to put on after a shower I think for it to work.
Sorry no real help!

I’m on Climara Pro and they only have one dosage . It’s making me wake up very early and just a very ‘blue’ feeling . You can’t just come off it so I’m going to take it off tonight for a few days.... see how I do off it ... then if all the dizziness fatigue comes back I’ll just go on 1/2 patch .
You may do fine on it.. I’m just sensitive to medication I could never do anti depressants and they’re so strong .
