For Postmenopausal Symptoms "Have taken Angeliq for 4 years, and feel very well. Has eliminated dryness and mood swings, also great improvement in hair, nails, etc. No weight gain, but slightly painful breasts during initial months, but now okay. Would recommend this hormone replacement therapy. Had tried others e.g. Femoston, Livial, and Estrocombi but this is the best of all and will keep taking for as long as possible."

For Postmenopausal Symptoms "I'm 59 and been on HRT for the past 5 years or so; originally PostOval, which helped with my fibroids and heavy periods. Doc then changed me to Livifem, which was fine, but still awful hot flushes and stopped my periods altogether - which was great because my libido also went right up! Been on Angeliq for 3 months now. Stopped the hot flushes immediately, which is fantastic; a bit of breast pain, but actually have little breasts now, which is amazing. However, recently started spotting - it's been more than two weeks now. It's quite annoying, to say the least."

For Postmenopausal Symptoms "Lots of side effects, especially breast pain and enlargement, reduced libido, very short temper. I am going to ask my doctor to change me to something else, as I feel dreadful on it. Been on it 5 months."

For Postmenopausal Symptoms "Day 7, no change with hot flashes. I have sore breasts that I haven’t had in 2 years. It has made me very moody and agitated. I’m considering discontinuing as I don’t like how it makes me feel."
