I’ve been in menopause now for about 4-5 years and have suffered setbacks during this time

I have now been on Evorel Sequi patches now for over a year and in the last 3 months seems to have stopped working. I’ve been off work 3 months as I’m crying, anxious, low, so tired, can’t think properly. I’m at my wits end. Before the patches I was on tablet HRT but was making my stomach bad! I also take citalopram alongside HRT patches. Has anyone experienced similar? Maybe I need higher dose of HRT?

    I am sorry to hear that your having such a problem. I eventually had an appointment with a gynaecologist who was sympathetic and helpful. I think it would be a good idea for you to ask your doctor for a referral.

     Hope you get sorted out soon because it causes such anxiety.

     Best wishes
