I was prescribed Femhrt 1/5 Tablets to help with menopausal symptoms like hot flashes and vaginal dryness. The combination of estrogen and progestin has been a lifesaver, but I've had some side effects that I'm not sure if others are experiencing. Has anyone else dealt with mood swings or weight gain? I've also been experiencing some spotting, and I'm not sure if I should be concerned. Do any of you experience this? I've read that dark patches of skin on the face are a possible side effect, so I'm trying to use sunscreen religiously. Any tips on managing these side effects would be appreciated. Does anyone know if these side effects go away after a while or if I should talk to my doctor about adjusting the dose?
