Early Menopause Due to Surgery

Okay I need you guys to throw in your expertise. i am 5 weeks post op and seem to be having trouble with the patch. In the beginning they put a .1 estradoil patch on me. Then 2 weeks ago the Dr told me to try to cut them in half because I was sick at my stomach and had a metallic taste in my mouth. This morning I put on a fresh half and wham the taste is back!!! i also have a nagging headache that has been hanging around for about a week. Not a bad one just enough to be noticed. I go in to for my 6 week check up next Monday and was going to wait until then to ask again about the patch, i really enjoy wearing it but dang enough is enough. Or am I just being impatient again? lol

Anyway any help would be greatly appreciated. Dawn

Dawn, I would suggest you mention this to your dr when you see him on Monday. I didn't do the patch because I was annoyed that it was falling off before my week was up so I opted for the premarin pill instead. The headache sounds like a reaction to the hormone imho but remember i'm no expert.

Ya know it's one thing to not be  patient but i don't think that is you, There is no reason you should suffer. Getting hormones regulated can be difficult, I just got luck.

Talk to your dr and update us when you can. Sorry I wasn't of more help.
