Week 2: And The Beat Goes On

Before I started Estalis, my periods were starting to space out.

50, 60 day cycles.

I made it to almost 70 days this time, then it descended. No warnings, no PMS, no cramps. It was a short one. But intense.

I’m also finding out where the patch is best placed. Lower abdomen seems to work for me. Anywhere else and the patch starts to come off. I had to put medical tape on one….oops!

I must say that so far I am not having any adverse effects from the patch, so I am keeping fingers crossed.

I have been evening out with the ups and downs with my anger. There are still some outbursts, but not as heated. I am starting to have the ability to focus more. This has made such a difference.

Less hot flashes (maybe 1 or 2 per day), night sweats are mostly gone, and I am sleeping better.

Not gonna shy away from the fact that I still have my bad days…as I type this I am struggling with some gross emotions.

So, still a day day thing.

But, sooooo much better than I have been.

Let’s hope the trend continues!
