Comparing patch dose to pill dose

I was using a 1.50 dose in my patch. So, I am thinking that would probably be equal to taking three of the .5mg estrace tablets a day. Does that seem right?

Re: Comparing patch dose to pill dose

I think Kim said the oral estrogen dose is 20 times transdermal dose so you'd use 3 mg?
