I use a once-a-week patch. The initial patch I was prescribed was Climara. It's very small and clear but it didn't stay on very well. It rolled up quite a bit, especially when it got wet in a shower or swimming. I've switched to the brand by Mylan which is a little thicker and stays put for the whole week. Much happier with that product.

I use the Menostar patch. Only fell off once in five years.

What type of doctor prescribed your patch?

Hello, teb. I was told Climara was bioidentical. Would you say that is true? Just had it prescribed today by ob/gyn. I am somewhat anxious about starting it at age 72.
