Talk to your doc!: It depends on how long you've been on it. Some side effects improve in a month or two. If you don't like the way they make you feel, sure, try a different kind. There are many forms of hormone replacement therapy. Try others until you find one you can tolerate. Your doc is the one who can advise you best, &recommend the next best step. Nobody wants you to feel worse on meds than you were before!
