I take Evorel Sequi, oestrogen for the first two weeks then progesterone for the last two as I still have periods. That’s great you feel better, I can’t help with the higher readings I’m afraid? Is it progesterone that causes the higher bloods? I’m only just finishing week three of my patches but have noticed my bloods have been much kinder for this time of my cycle. I usually start to get very insulin resistant by now and need a higher basal but so far so good. I think it’s good to document how HRT helps our blood sugar (if it does) as there doesn’t seem to be much research out there. Hormones have been the hardest part of handling diabetes for me, I totally dread my period every month!! x</p></blockquote><p></p>
