For Postmenopausal Symptoms: I love the effects of Estradiol Transdermal Patch on my severe hot flashes and mood swings. But because bathing water penetrates the glue and its difficult to get the patch to stay on more than 4-5 days. I've taped it on, placed a large bandaid over. Just anything to stretch out 7 days worth of use. This is a major issue with me because they only give you 4 patches a month. I've spoken with my pharmacist they suggested I contact the manufacturer. Does anyone else have this issue?
