For Postmenopausal Symptoms "I used this convenient little patch for a week, and I began to experience symptoms related to blood clots: ankles were so swollen, I couldn’t see my ankle bones, so my doctor prescribed compression socks. Other symptoms were dizziness, nausea, shortness of breath, and headaches. I removed the patch, and within 24 hours, all symptoms disappeared. I’d have ended up in the emergency room if I had kept using this patch."

For Postmenopausal Symptoms "I had a terrible vasomotor reaction. First and last time I used it, after 18 hours, the patch bottomed out, and I started having hot flashes. I was shaking, had a brain-buster headache, and severe nausea. Fortunately, I still had some of my generic Noven patches left over. I ripped off the Dotti and put on the one I usually used, and within 30 minutes, I was fine. Dotti is garbage, yet pharmacies are pushing it right now. Must be getting paid to do so."

For Postmenopausal Symptoms "I am only one month in with Dottie, however, the difference for me has been nothing short of incredible! Within one hour of applying the patch, it was almost like the world seemed brighter. I was changing sheets in the middle of the night from night sweats, spending 40% of my life surviving hot flashes while others were surviving me, and was truly the prime example of a postmenopausal woman for the past seven years of my life. I was prescribed the Dotti patch and progesterone capsules to be taken nightly one month ago. I will say the first few days I fought a bit of nausea, have had trouble sleeping two nights, and have gotten a little emotional a time or two, but hot flashes have diminished to almost nonexistent. I have not had bad night sweats in three-plus weeks, and my moods are much more stable than before the hormone therapy. This is just my experience so far. Hope it helps! P.S. It is not pretty, I agree. I just try to conceal or put a pretty band-aid over it."
