Hi ladies, wondering about taking multi vitamins along with your hrt?, thinking particulary about B6. I read its meant to help with mood?, tho the bottle says helps regulate hormonal activity - would this work againat whatever your patches are trying to do? Hope ive explained ok? Any advice would be appreciated.

    Hi Angela sorry you're having a hard time with anxiety, I can empathise with you, I suffered for 7 years before going on HRT, much better now thank goodness. I never had antideoresssnts, but I took Kalms and used rescue remedy, both helped calm me when I had bad days. I take vitamin D and b complex daily too

      I agree, Kalms and night rescue spray are very useful for good sound sleep. And to help soothe anxiety, neither are addictive either.

      Hi Twiggy, did you not find the rescue remedy gave you heartburn/acid reflux? I used to use it with no problem, but I found I couldn't use it when I really needed it.

      Hi Supemack39! No heartburn I use the spray on the tongue at night, 2 squirts and it's been fine!

    Hi, Angela.

    Been on Evorel patches for over a year & have been taling evening primrose 7 glucasamine vitamins for donkeys years. No problems at all. Spose we are all different but worth a try. Good luck.

      Thank you Jean

      I'll be swapping from fem7conti to Everol this Saturday. I'm

      Hoping it will be as good.

      I just noticed the eostriol amount was higher so think I may use half a patch and see if sweats come back or not!

      Hi Twiggz.. just from personal experience .. I cut my patch to exactly half last Tuesday (25rh Apr) have been slowly decreasing it for quite some time.. so far so good (fingers crossed).. a couple of very low heat flushes .. you can only trial/error it and see how you feel smile
