For Postmenopausal Symptoms "So I have been taking Angeliq 1 MG/2 MG tablets for a week now for vaginal dryness and low libido. I went through menopause and had 2 very bad months of night sweats/hot flashes and depression, but that all went away months ago. Since starting Angeliq 1 week ago, the night sweats are back with a vengeance. I know this is a very short time and I should wait to see if anything improves, but everything seems to be going in reverse, not getting better. Has anyone experienced this?"

For Postmenopausal Symptoms "I have been on Angeliq for 10 years post-vaginal hysterectomy and ovary removal. As this medication is unavailable in Australia at the moment, my GP has recommended I come off it. I have been off for 16 days, I feel okay, but I am feeling rather teary and down. Is this normal, and has anyone else experienced it? Also waking up with mild night sweats. Will all this subside when hormones settle down?"

For Postmenopausal Symptoms "I’ve been on this medication for 7 weeks. After the 4th day, I noticed my hot flushes and night sweats were nowhere near as bad as they had been. 2 weeks in, they had all gone. Then, severe cramping on my left side started, then spotting started, and now it’s heavy bright red blood and been like it for 2 weeks now."
