For Postmenopausal Symptoms "Excellent for me. Not sure why people say they don't stick, as I have no problems at all and actually find them sticky when trying to take them off! Another person said they are large?? Mine are only 1 inch square, so quite small and invisible when stuck down. My symptoms improved dramatically within 2 weeks of use. The only side effect I've had is sore boobs, but pretty much like premenstrual painful breasts, so I guess that's because they are working. So glad to be on them."

For Postmenopausal Symptoms "The patches do stick. They rustle. They also fold into the skin. They are 6 larger than the patches I have been used to using, so not discreet at all. My mood has dropped from being very upbeat to more lethargic. My breasts have started to be painful on occasions. My sleep pattern is disrupted, and the brain fog has come back."

For Postmenopausal Symptoms "I've had my patches upped due to the 50 stopping working. I've been on them a week, and I'm back to night flushes, headaches, and extremely sore breasts. Is this natural? When I was on 50, I had no problems until they stopped working. I find the patches stick quite well, no problems falling off. Need advice."
