Estrogen Patch funny

So DH went to pick up my patches. They switched me to these last minute and the Pharmacist was really concerned about the hig dose I will be on. She thought they had written it wrong. It's 3 a day every other day.

I also love how the box says don't use while pregnant yet I will be on them for 8-10 weeks.

Going to go try to sleep. Apparently all my tossing, turning, and moaning kept DH and the dog up all night. They are napping on the couch, but I think I will go to bed.

  • Oh I hate those patches. I had the same dose as you last cycle and hated scrubbing of the sticky residue from the old patches. Blech.

    Yes they are Vivelle dots. I do 3 every other day. He got me 28 days worth. I had pills, but they don't want me to take those now.

  • I did Vivelle too and the pharmacist kinda laughed at the dosage assuming it was wrong...I had to explain why I was using them and he said he understood, but I don't think he did really...
