hi there

Does anyone get a bad headache at the back of their neck about 1 -1:30 hours after applying Oestrogel?

i wake up feeling ok, apply Oestrogel and bam! About 60-90 min later I have a banging headache at the bottom of my skull/neck and I feel nauseous.

I went from 4 pumps to 3 pumps about 2 weeks ago.

thank you
