I'm so glad I stumbled across this video! I am about to start on hormone patches and I go swimming everyday!😂
Thank you
I thought it should not go above the waist? (Patches)
Agreed . My patch leaflet says only apply below the waist
This video is talking about the Gel NOT patches@@lynnlees5608
I apply it above the waist because I take baths daily. It works just fine.
She talking specifically about the gel here. Patches are below the waist
it shouldn't. it should be as far from the breast as possible
Thankyou so much for this but can you please tell me do you rub the gel in or put a thin layer and wait until dry because I’m not sure please help me ❤
You rub it in until it's almost gone. Outer arms shoulder to elbow or inner upper thighs
@@archieboo7001 thanks 💕
Where exactly on the buttock? I tried to do the lower stomach, but due to my C-section mommy pouch it fell off.
Hello! I just realized that I accidentally forgot to remove my old HRT patch and had been wearing 2 patches for 2 days before I realized it. Is there any harm in it since it was an old patch? Please advice. Thank you!
No, no worries, not if it's only two days
Rub in or leave to dry please?
Rub in
But doctor, I have pills.
You should get it in a cream or patch form. Pills are the worst form.
@@Pip734 I read that the patch is the same as pills.
Both have the same risks and benefits.
I asked the pharmacy and went online.
I'm on the patch and I'm thinking about switching to pills.
@@Pip734
Why do you say that? I had to switch from patch to Bio identical pill due to an allergy to sticky parts of patch.
Who has an hour to let it absorb 🤔
can we apply to inner thighs?
She says inner thighs in the video
Yes
