Early bleed?
« on: April 09, 2016, 06:44:16 PM »

Hi, can anyone clarify when I should bleed on femoston 2/10?
I'm on my second pack and last month I bled after I'd finished the progesterone pills. I thought I was spotting early today but now think I may be starting a proper bleed but my last progesterone pill is tomorrow. Any advice welcome. Only have access on my phone today and I can't navigate the website very well. Thanks in advance.

I'm not sure, as I'm on separate estrogen patches and progesterone pills, but I've been starting my bleed toward the end of my progesterone part. My gp and my own research both say this is normal and ok.

Redfraggle - this often happens in the first few months until the HRT takes control but many of us start bleeding a day or so early and it's not a problem. Keep going - hope it's working well for you.  DG x

Thanks both. It's worked wonders so I was really hoping someone would say it's fine. My anxiety, feeling faint, headaches, poor concentration and low mood have all vanished. I've put on a little weight and have intense labial itching at times (I bought some stuff for that) but I couldn't be more pleased with it!

Femoston is a great product! Has done wonders for me. Not to worry about early bleed - i usually start bleeding toward the end of the progesterone tablets too. I have been on Femoston for 2 years now .
Good luck!

Thanks, it's definitely my proper bleed. I'm loving it so far. I wish I'd gone to the docs several years ago but I'm only 43 so kept thinking it was too soon.

I was 43 when I started - 45 now. Not too early at all, at least for me this was the case.

I'm even more encouraged that you took it from the same age. Thank you!
