Thanks Dr. Lapidus for the response, but I understand why HRT is prescribed and I've been told that the CombiPatch may or may not be enough to control the endo. I was placed on the CombiPatch while in recovery after the surgery.

What I need advice on is if I need to go back to Gyn to possibly have the HRT increased/changed now before things get worse? OR Do I wait to see how things progress and discuss it with Gyn on my scheduled appt in March'03?

THANKS!
