Postmenopausal Symptoms
"51 years old-postmenopausal for 2 years. Started this for hot flashes, night sweats, trouble sleeping. Been taking med for 3 months now. Had cramping &amp; bleeding initially. Titrated patch by cutting in half. Had exam &amp; endometrial biopsy to rule out any problems. Bleeding stopped. After 3 weeks at half patch, symptoms returned somewhat. Increased back to whole patch- 2 weeks no bleeding, now have cramping &amp; bleeding again for 3 days now. I know these are side effects that usually completely subside, so I am waiting to see if the bleeding stops altogether. The patch has stayed on with no problem, &amp; is very effective. I have thick hair, but have noticed slight thinning which is not a problem so far. I will give it more time."
