So I've been on anti-adrogens for about 3 weeks and estrogen for 2 weeks. I haven't noticed any negative side effects upmuntil yesterday. I've been putting my transdermal patch on my lower back, alternating sides every 3 to 4 days. Well, yesterday I decided to put the patch on my butt because I read there is better absorption there. A few hours later I came over with a very intense dizzyness that seemed to pulsate throughout the day. Wow, I was not expecting that!
It has seemed to subside thankfully, but for awhile there I was getting worried. Is the absorption seriously that much more intense through the behind that my body was overwhelmed?

I got dizzy on spiro after a few weeks. It was quite dangerous seeing as I work around heavy equipment and trucks. Changing from spiro solved it entirely for me.
I would ask your endo, but it may well not be the E.
