Estrogel

[Guest guest]

I got blood tests back today...... 1.5 mgs. Estrogel per day gave me a

reading of 56 for E2. . And I was doing that dose for two weeks prior to

testing... Not too long before that, I tested E2 after doing 2 lines Del

Norte HRT cream, plus a patch every day and a half, and the reading was

195. Don't know what to make of this except I need alot more

estradiol...... and other than fatigue, I can't say I am suffering greatly

from E deficiency... but can it be that I have forgotten what " really good "

feels like?!

----> Yeah I'm starting to think that's it. When I have " really good "

days I get the gest that I'm not there a lot of the time. Still is

taking a lot of energy to get through daily stuff so there's not

enough left over the fun stuff.

I'm also frustrating a bit now over how complicated all this gets.

I'll get over it......

....... 1.5 mgs. Estrogel per day gave me a reading of 56 for E2. . And I was

If this was a serum level it seems low to me, I would think it should be around 90-120. How long after application did you test?

Sam

I tested about 2 1/2 hours after .75 mg application. I apply .75 mg. BID.

Does 56 seem low with this kind of application?

> I hear you Lynn!!!! It seems like getting to a good steady place is

taking forever...or is it all an illusion? Madeleen

----> Illusion... that's the word I was looking for LOLOL!

I've been doing 18mg of P the last few days trying to add it back in

and I'm wiped again. (P is oo sublingual from the WIP bottle that

8drops = 50mgs. I'm doing 1 drop AM and 2 drops P.)

I'm sleeping great...in fact I want to sleep all the time just like

last year. I WANT my 2:00pm nap so bad I can't stand it. And I go

comatose with it. My muscles are getting weak again, losing enthusiasm

for life and my appetite has returned for sugar, sugar, sugar....

ALL on a lousy 18mg of P !!!! I can't even think about what the hell I

did to myself on WP.

I waiting to see what the blood test last week shows. I tested the E

before adding any P.

Lynn- same thing is happening to me. I'm using only 2 drops of OO

P (on my wrist) and it's 50mgs/8 drops too. It wipes me out

physically. What is up with this?

The first week or two that I added a small amount of P back in I had

the same old overload symptoms...but after that, I went to 100mg P BID

because i wanted to stop my periods and bleeding and I found I now get

more energy from it like I used to. Why? I have NO IDEA.

Yes I suppose I could add more OO to the mix, but then I'll never

know what dose I'm taking!

Hi ,

just a suggestion, if you haven't thought of it yet yourself. What if you mix your E oos with an extra blob of emu or coconut oil ? Laurel gave me that idea way back (- I remember that I thinned out the MS cream with some distilled water.)- and it's worked for me !

, just put a blob of what ever oil you are going to use in the palm of your hand, then put your OO E dose on top, let them combine in your hand, then rub it in really well. It's fast and easy:))
