Can you develop tolerance to estrogen cream?

[Guest guest]

Hi Everyone

Just a random question: could I be developing a tolerance to the estridial cream

my doctor has prescribed?

When I first started taking it (again, after having a month off) I only needed

4mg to feel good, two weeks later I need up to 15mg just to feel ok?!?

Any suggestions? I'd much rather use a patch, as I also think Im getting a peak

and a crash of estrogen through the day.

Far out! This is all so complicated! Ive dealt with so much the past three years

with my thyroid/ adrenals and this low estrogen thing is being such a pain!

I dont think my progesterone is very high, as tests showed it was very low, even

though I did the WP (sort of) for a few months, I never took the high doses of P

Wiley reccomends because I couldnt tolerate them at all.

Sooo, that's my question. COuld I be developing a tolerance to the dose? Are my

receptors getting overloaded? Is there a way of making more receptors, or making

them more responsive to the estrogen?

Thank you!
