Post menopausal discharge
toothbrush:
Hi, very worried and hope some of you wonderful ladies may help?
I have been on femseven conti for about year and a half with no issues and before that femseven sequi. Started hrt when was about 48 and recently turned 52. Doctor changed to conti as I hadn't had any bleeds on the sequi for about a year since using it. (Had tablets before which did cause heavy periods)
Anyways , couple of weeks back I didn't change patch on usual day , I was 3 days late in swapping it ( I also have only been using half a patch for long time)
And about 4 weeks ago I started using vagifem pessaries ( 2 weeks every night then twice a week as instructed )
But for the last week to 10 days my breasts have been super sore especially nipples . And still sore 😥. I also had what I reckon were typical pmt symptoms , pretty ratty and craving carbs/ salty foods
(Altho that's stopped now)And developed a brown stringy discharge 4 days ago only noticeable when going to toilet and not every time . After the initial vagifem things definitely improved and moisture improved . Sorry ladies if this is all too much info .😧
I have a doctors appointment tomorrow. Anyone else had issues like this ? I spoke to mum last night and she said she had same issue with spotting and had to come off hrt , but that was many years ago and don't think she was scanned or anything
Hope someone may help 😊

If you didn't change your patch at the right time, then your hormone levels will have been up and down - so this might trigger the bit of brown spotting. A slight brown discharge is usually nothing to worry about. If you get full on bleeding then that would need to be investigated. Do be disciplined about changing the patches. A bit of spotting can happen in the first couple of weeks using Vagifem but the dose is so small it is likely to be causing problems.
I really, really wouldn't worry. DG x
