35mg may sound a lot, but that will be the total amount of the patch. Did it mention the daily release rate ?
If we divide 35/15 we get 2.33 mg daily. An effective transition amount is between 4 and 6 mg a day. At that amount Spiro and Fin are not required, long time use of those AA`s carry their own health issues.
Estrogen has also changed in the last few years, we only use bio identical hormones now, blood clots ect are mostly a thing of the past.
2.33 mg daily with (say) WP should be an effective starting point.
To put things in perspective, my prescription is 2×100 estrodot patch every 3.5 days.
