Angeliq (drospirenone / estradiol) for Postmenopausal Symptoms: I am 53, I suffered from insomnia, anxiety, heart palpitation, bloating for years before my family Doctor put me on Angeliq four yrs. ago. It took over six months before I started to feel the difference. I have been a normal person now leading a normal life, my family can't believe the difference in me. It has been a blessing.

Angeliq (drospirenone / estradiol) for Postmenopausal Symptoms: I am 54 and have used Angeliq for several years with good results, although for me it was more effective for hot flashes in combination with Lexapro. I am happy to see they approved Angeliq in a lower dose and will be moving to the lower dose formulation. It is expensive, however, and I am annoyed that it is not available in 'refills' for the leather packet it comes in -- it is such a waste of packaging to receive a new leather packet in each refill and I am sure that inflates the cost.

Angeliq (drospirenone / estradiol) for Postmenopausal Symptoms: I took Angeliq for 2 1/2 years. It was great. All of a sudden I became numb on the left side of my face, left arm, and sometimes my left leg. My left ear started ringing and my head was buzzing. I also started having memory loss and confusion. I went to my gynecologist and told him the warning on the medicine was exactly what I was feeling and he didn't seem to understand. He had my blood drawn for estradiol and Lyden Factor. I finally I started bleeding vaginally. I immediately stopped the Angeliq. In a few days all the symptoms were gone except the ringing and buzzing in my ears. At the same time I was sick from all this, my thyroid became overactive, my cholesterol went up 40 points (all in 2 months). I still have loud buzzing in my head.

Angeliq (drospirenone / estradiol) for Postmenopausal Symptoms: I had all of the horrible symptoms of menopause. Some list include 32 - that was me. Sweating, weight gain, hot flashes, night sweats, mood swings.....on and on.
One month on Angeliq - all gone. I am so happy. This has made me a new woman.

Angeliq (drospirenone / estradiol) for Postmenopausal Symptoms: I've tried 2 other medicines (Pempro & Femhrt) to relieve my hot flashes. Angeliq is the best. It did take a bit longer to start working, but once it started working I feel great. No weight gain associated with this medicine, unlike the other 2. Energy level has also improved.

Angeliq (drospirenone / estradiol) for Postmenopausal Symptoms: I am on Day 6 on this medication and have to say that I am not finding any difference in hot flashes, low mood and very low energy. It may be too early, but I'm hopeful.

Angeliq (drospirenone / estradiol) for Postmenopausal Symptoms: Well it changed my life. I was only 43 and everything was on a down hill, the hot flushes and mood swings unbearable. but two weeks into using Angeliq hot flushes were gone, I was full of energy, 4 kilos lighter not sure if it is Angeliq but I have been taking it for three years and I'm happy. All vaginal problems and water infections, which is down to menopause, gone totally.
