Prescribed patches for the first time today. Been taking tablet form of HRT for five years. GP said to apply to upper outer arm because back sweaty and have a physical job. Leaflet in medication says apply to top of legs, bottom etc.
Where do you apply your patches if you are prone to sweating??
Hi. I have to apply my patches to anywhere below the waist line. I put mine on hip towards my bottom then my big knickers cover it. Alternate sides.The sticky glue is hard to remove after removing patch. I've read surgical spirit is good. I use eye makeup remover! Mine are evorel conti. Good Luck x
Olá Barbara.
Comecei a terapia hormonal no último terça-feira, chamada patches FemSeven, coloquei no meu bumbum, uau, que assunto, primeiro coloquei na parte de cima da perna, mas durou apenas um dia até eu tirar (não li o folheto), não todo ele, o meu sugere o bumbum…
Espero que isso ajude?! Lol
Eu uso os adesivos Estraderm há 26 anos e nunca tive problemas com eles soltando. Sempre aplico abaixo da cintura, não é um adesivo de nicotina, realmente um mau conselho do seu médico.
Eu alternando entre o quadril direito externo e o esquerdo, sem problemas, passo com os dedos por toda a área e depois seguro com a palma da mão por cerca de 20 segundos, nunca solta. Eu usei os adesivos Estraderm MX, fantásticos.

Gee, some drs have some weird ideas. I apply as per instructions - turn about right and left abdomen, right and left upper bottom.
While there is no residue from my Estradiol MX patches, my skin does react to the glue, leaving an irritated red mark.
I have since gone back to implanted estradiol pellets - much happier with them. Have to get them from a compound chemist now.
Hi Barbara. I am on Evorel Sequi/50. Don't know how similar patches are but was told to wear them on upper leg area & alternate each time, ie twice weekly. Same with Fem7 I was on before, Don't think my outer thighs get sweaty but both GPs
said important to put them below the waist. Good luck.
Hi Barbara, apply them below the waist - outer thigh/bottom. The sticky residue comes off really easily with baby oil/cotton wool
I used to put them on my bottom.
