Sounds like a symptom of too much estrogen to me, in other words, estrogen dominance. You need to get off the synthetic and take a good, bio-identical hormone cream, a compounding pharmacist can make this up for you once the doc prescribes it. You can also use a good, over the counter cream, I am talking about Progesterone by the way, it will help to alleviate the estrogen dominance and get those hormones back in balance. Hardly anyone needs extra estrogen, our bodies still make it even after menopause, just not as much, the progesterone will use what your body makes and help balance it out, there is no cancer risk with natural hormones either, with synthetic, that is a different story.

I'm taking estrace 4 mg daily and have also taken estradiol before, and have not had a problem with vertigo.  Why do you associate it with the estradiol?  I thought positional vertigo had to do with little calcifications in the inner ear breaking off wherever they are attached and floating around.  Do you think this comes from estrogen use?  I had heard it came from something else.
