Safely Buy Combipatch (Estradiol 17b/Norethindrone Acetate) from Canada Prescriptions Plus.

Description

Combipatch is a transdermal patch containing estrogen and progestin, which acts as a natural hormone replacing the diminished hormones in menopausal women. The drug is absorbed through the skin to the bloodstream to reduce risks of hot flashes, a sudden heat in the face, neck, and chest, and vaginal dryness, which causes sores, irritations, and pain during intercourse and urination. These symptoms are caused by the low estrogen levels in the body; synthetic estrogen works by alleviating these symptoms, while progesterone balances estrogen’s effect in the uterine lining to prevent cancer. As of the moment, there is no Combipatch alternative, for no therapeutically equivalent version is approved.

Combipatch Weight Gain and Combipatch weight loss 

Menopausal women naturally gain weight as the body goes through hormonal changes; a low estrogen level causes visceral fats and slows down the metabolic rate. Hormone replacements like Combipatch should not affect the weight may it be gaining or losing, as it acts just like the normal, natural hormones. It may involve a little in losing weight due to some studies showing prevention in increasing visceral fat and lowering BMI body mass index, but if the therapy is stopped, it may have a rebound weight gain. And a slight effect on weight gain due to water retention can be reduced by limiting salt consumption and having regular exercise. But there is no direct evidence to prove HRT hormonal replacement therapies cause weight loss and gain. 

Combipatch Withdrawal Symptoms 

In a state of wanting to stop this patch, do not abruptly stop, for the condition may worsen, or withdrawal symptoms may get worse. Consult your doctor to help you gradually decrease your dose or decrease the number of uses per week and dose simultaneously. Stopping estrogen and progestin therapy may cause a return of symptoms of hot flashes but in a manageable state.  It may also affect bone health and may develop bone brittleness leading to osteoporosis; however, a proper diet and non-hormonal medicines can effectively prevent bone loss. Withdrawal can also increase the risk of heart diseases and breast cancer. 

Combipatch vs Climara Pro 

Both medications are in patch form used in relieving symptoms of menopausal like hot flashes. Still, Combipatch can also ease vaginal dryness and irritation, unlike Climara Pro, where the cream is recommended as a part of treatment. Combipatch is replaced twice a week in 0.05mg-0.14mg, while Climara Pro is replaced once a week in 0.045mg-0.015mg. Combipatch is more expensive because it has no generic available, unlike Climara Pro.
