I found this patch to be difficult to keep on. The glue sticks to your skin but the patch does not, therefore I've had to use cloth tape to keep it on, especially during times where I'm exercising regularly. when the patch is on it works, but the difficulty with keeping it on has meant the dosage has been inconsistent, resulting in alot of spotting/bleeding. I've used it for a year, but I'm now looking for something else. Published: October 27, 2007 ::

It initially helped me sleep better and controlled my mood swings, and is the only easy-to-use form of preventing vaginal dryness...for a while I swore there was broken glass in there...But I have put on weight that I can't seem to take off even by controlling diet and increasing exercise. I'm going off it for a while to see what happens...my husband will be my gauge as to whether I get cranky or not... Published: October 29, 2007 ::

I am unable to truthfully rate how effective this product might be because it will not stay adhered to my skin. Even with my health insurance co-pay of $60.00 for 4 patches it is too expensive to have to put a new patch on every 48 hours. If it can't stand up to the moisture from a hot flash, what good is it> I'll be contacting the company for a refund. Published: September 28, 2008 ::

The first week I really felt a difference in my mood, and sweatiness. It has not made a difference yet in my night sweat, and insomnia. The Patch is really difficult to keep on, showering or just sweating prevents it from sticking for more than 3 day's! I'm trying to fix a health issue and the patch is creating a new headache.

I started using this patch four months ago. My migranes and insomnia subsided almost immediately. My mood, anxiety and vaginal dryness improved greatly. The only negative side effects are breast tenderness for the last three weeks and I had some vaginal bleeding this morning. I also had a terrible time getting the patch to stick but I found a solution. I cover the patch with a "Tegaderm" dressing. It's a clear, waterproof,"breathable", adhesive dressing (used in the hospital to cover IV sites). You can buy them at the drug store (I went to Walgreens). Problem solved!

I was prescribed this patch for early menopause (36 yo) I cannot keep the patch on my skin! I'm on my 4th patch in 2 days and they haven't been on continuously. They completely fall off without me knowing it and then I have to hunt it down around the house to be sure my kids and/or animals don't find it. After reading these reviews, it seems that a lot of people have the same problem. Why doesn't the company make some changes? I like the idea of asking the company for a refund noted in another review. I'm going to have to pay another copay for a new set of patches now! Published: April 14, 2009 ::

I have had no problems adhering the patch to my skin nor is there any difficulty in keeping it on. The only drawback that I can identify is the price, but I think its cost is a small price to pay for a full head of hair, which was falling out in droves when I was on Prempro!

I used this patch for 4 months before giving up on it. could not keep it on. had mild pain in my abdomen constantly. After discontinuing use I am left with a watery discharge that I never had with prempro. This has been going on for 6 months so, I think it must be a pemanent side effect. Has anyone else had this experience? Published: December 08, 2008 ::
