Hi and welcome to MM
Probably get back to the GP as a scan may be necessary. Sometimes with the patches the hormones don't absorb consistently and this could allow the womb lining to build up. There may be nothing really wrong but it's best to get things checked. The Mirena is often the best way to ensure a bleed free HRT regime. DG x

had Merina for 5 years but was taken out as started to have problems, had scan and was advised to have it removed. Blood tests showed am late menopause so was offered patches. Had no probs with them, other than the bleeding more recently, along with period type pain. am wondering if this is just body adjusting. will mention to docs though, thnks for your reply x
