How to navigate the common issues of HRT patches

Hormone Replacement Therapy (HRT) patches are a popular and effective way to manage menopausal symptoms, but they come with a common frustration – sticky adhesive residue left on the skin after removal. Many women struggle to get rid of glue marks, leading to irritation, discomfort and frustration.

Leftover patch adhesive can not only affect skin health but also impact confidence, making it difficult to leave our skin fresh and comfortable. While some women resort to scrubbing or using harsh removers, these methods can do much more harm than good.

That’s where Nudi Spray™ comes in, a fast-acting adhesive remover designed to remove HRT patch glue marks gently and effectively. Enriched with nourishing vitamin E, it ensures a non-irritating skin cleansing experience, leaving your skin soothed and refreshed.

In this guide, we’ll explore why adhesive residue is so stobborn, the best post-HRT patch skincare routine, and how to use Nudi Spray™ for an easy, hassle-free solution.

Why Does Adhesive Residue Stay on the Skin?

How HRT Patches Work

HRT patches are designed to deliver hormones like estrogen or progesterone through the skin into the bloodstream. This method ensures a steady absorption of hormones, helping to balance hormone levels and reduce menopause symptoms such as hot flashes, mood swings, and sleep disturbances.

To keep the patch securely attached for several days, the adhesive used is strong and long-lasting. However, this means that when it’s time to replace the patch, sticky marks are often left behind.

Factors That Affect Residue Build-Up

Not everyone experiences the same level of adhesive residue. Several factors influence how much glue is left behind, including:

  • Skin Type: People with oily skin may find that patches don’t stick as well, leading to edges peeling off early. Meanwhile, those with dry or sensitive skin may notice the glue clinging more tightly.
  • Body Temperature & Sweat: Warm water, exercise, and humidity can make adhesive melt and spread, causing uneven residue build-up.
  • Patch Placement: Areas with movement and friction (like the lower abdomen or thigh) may cause adhesive to shift and break down unevenly, making it harder to remove.

Common Issues with Removing HRT Patch Residue

Ineffective Removal Methods

Many women turn to soap and water, expecting it to remove the sticky residue. Unfortunately, this method is often ineffective, leading to aggressive scrubbing, which can cause redness and irritation, not ideal.

Other common methods include:

  • Rubbing Alcohol: While it dissolves adhesive quickly, it can be drying and irritating for sensitive skin.
  • Oils (Coconut Oil, Baby Oil, Petroleum Jelly): These can work but may leave behind a greasy layer, requiring extra cleansing afterward.
  • Exfoliation or Scrubbing: While this might eventually remove the residue, it can damage the skin barrier, making it harder for wounds to heal and increasing sensitivity over time.

Impact on Skin Health

Using the wrong adhesive remover for medical patches can cause:

  • Skin Irritation: Repeated scrubbing can lead to redness, dryness, or small rashes.
  • Difficult Patch Reapplication: Leftover residue can affect how well the next patch sticks, reducing hormone absorption.
  • Long-Term Damage: Constant irritation may cause fine lines and wrinkles to form faster, making menopause-friendly skincare essential.
