Wellsprings 20-1

I've been using Wellsprings 20-1 cream for about 6-8 months but it doesn't seem to be helping with hot flushes, I also take evening primrose, black cohosh, sage and the last sage i bought has red clover in it.

Has anyone got any other advice for hot flushes or is there a different cream that works better?

Thanks in advance 😊

Sounds like you need a higher dose of estrogen with this only providing 0.6mg per 0.5ml of cream it is very low compared to say 1 spray of Lenzetto which is 1.53mg estradiol 17β

Is that something you can buy online?

You can they seem to charge around £22 but it's free if you have it prescribed

I was finding the same regarding Wellsprings, wonder if they have been taken over and the dose contained is less?

Did you stick with it or try something else?

I am trying a product from Napiers which is supposed to do the same thing. Too early to say if it is any better.

onasnatural.uk/collections/... also do a couple of estrogen creams-the progesterone ones are out of stock at the moment but worth a look
