@julesvandegevel: I am making a change to my hormone replacement therapy because my estrogen is a little bit low and I’m getting so symptoms back. Oh the joys of being 56 and post menopausal! But usually when symptoms start to come back (mine are bloating and tiredness) women tend to increase their estrogen dose. I know that it’s not more estrogen that I need it’s that I need to absorb it better. Fact: when you apply your estrogen gel to the same body area for a long time then it stops absorbing as well and I’ve been putting it on my arm for a very long time! So I’m swapping and trying inner thigh! I will report back with how I get on. Where do you all apply your Estrogel ladies? #over50 #menopause #estrogen #hormonereplacementtherapy #perimenopause
That's interesting 🧐 have you ever taken testosterone Jules

what I have learned is that you should always be alternating your application spots

How many pumps do you do? I do a pump on one arm in the morning and one in the evening on the other arm. I'm still struggling with night sweats once ir twice a night. I don't want to up my pumps anymore so maybe I'll try putting them on my stomach and thigh.

Was watching a doc say put it on inner arm or inner thigh. Allegedly absorbs better in those less weathered locations

Inner thighs and change which leg every day. I don’t put moisturizer on my inner thighs so after a shower, I dry off, immediately put my estrogen gel on and then so everything else as it’s drying. I moisturize my legs, arms, face, and all of the rest of it. By the time I’m ready to get dressed, it’s usually dry.

You should never increase without bloods being done also you should never moisturise the area when applying the gel 🤦🏻♀️and why would you apply morning and night 🤦🏻♀️
