For Postmenopausal Symptoms "I was experiencing anxiety attacks, mood swings, strange electrical shocking sensations, and having trouble sleeping more than 2 or 3 hours at a time, even when I was exhausted. This is a pricey fix, but it immediately took care of my symptoms, but I'm having light periods occasionally. If I forget to change the sticker, those symptoms return. I'm on the low dose. I'm so thankful for this drug, while I am not a fan of drugs in general, this has definitely helped my quality of life."

For Postmenopausal Symptoms "I am 54 years old and have had no period for about 2 years. My hot flashes were unbearable, also night sweats and trouble sleeping, anxiety - lots of issues. The CombiPatch has helped tremendously and in a short period of time. Feel like I have my life back to enjoy."

For Postmenopausal Symptoms "Started on the CombiPatch a few years ago, and it saved my postmenopausal life. The hot flashes, mood swings, sleepless nights, and everything else came to a halt, and I felt normal again. My big concern is right now they are on back order until October 31st. I only have two left, and we are trying to come up with an interim solution. Why does this company keep running out of the CombiPatch? Not great for your customers."

For Postmenopausal Symptoms "Started the patch one year ago, it took away my symptoms almost immediately: hot flashes, sleepless nights, electrical shock feelings, anxiety for no reason. I am very happy with it, the downside is that I'm bleeding like a light period a lot and have some breast pain. Getting that checked out soon."

For Postmenopausal Symptoms "I was diagnosed with sudden early menopause. Severe migraines (worse than I ever had), anxiety and panic attacks, insomnia (barely sleeping), depression, and night sweats. I really started feeling 90% better within a couple of weeks. I’m sleeping. Anxiety is minimal, and I’m sleeping again. Minimal side effects, but I’ve had bloating and bad indigestion."

For Postmenopausal Symptoms "I was on CombiPatch for many years but had to go off of it about a year ago after retiring. Unfortunately, Medicare does not cover CombiPatch. Although I am not sure that it is totally due to going off CombiPatch, I have experienced many changes over the last several months. Those include the return of hot flashes, difficulty sleeping, extreme memory loss and brain fog, irritability, a sense of sadness, possibly depression, achy joints, and just no joy in my life. I spoke to my GYN about it at my annual yesterday. The out-of-pocket cost of CombiPatch for me would be almost $230 a month, and I cannot afford that. Due to this, we are going to try a generic estrogen patch and an oral progesterone tablet. I’ll see how that goes, and if this does not relieve some of my symptoms, I would appreciate someone who is knowledgeable about how I could possibly get CombiPatch from Canada. I have no idea how this works, and I want to appreciate the information if someone can please help me. Thank you."

For Postmenopausal Symptoms "My symptoms were slight, including flashes at night and some insomnia. Vaginal dryness was another concern. The patch has really helped. It's been almost a year since I started the patch. Early on, I had some spotting, but that has stopped. I am having some puffiness in the application area."
