> So does this mean that if anxiety is your number l problem that the patch may work for you? see the way I is see it like this. I couldn't tolerate the progestone in oral HRT but I could tolerate it in the cream form and then could wash it off. Pchologically it worked for me no side effects. now with the patch would it mean that if you remove it you also remove the med from system or does it stay there for a certain amt of time. i really have been thinking about this a lot and it is important to me.

Hi Jan :-)
I do not know. But the patch sure has less anxiety as a side effect. Regular selegiline makes me totally jittery and anxious. the "patch" actually is anxiolytic to me.
About the Progesterone... hmm no idea. I guess (!) you just got a lower dosage in the end and thats the reason you could tolerate it. And as soon as you "wash it off" (or remove a patch) your blood levels just will begin to sink. How fast this is, depends on you and the drug. So yes, it still is in your blood for a while and the ammount of the drug in your blood starts sinking.
