I started the same half patches nearly 3 weeks ago. I haven't had any bleeding yet but the consultant made a point of telling me that light bleeding would be perfectly normal and not to worry. I wonder whether you should be on Conti though if you have had periods in the last year? I am 5 years post meno. Are you over about 54?

Bleeding/breakthrough bleeding for up to the first six months on any conti HRT is normal. It should be mentioned in the information leaflet. It should eventually settle down but if not you can use sequi HRT instead which should give you a more predictable bleed.

I agree with Katejo that unless you are over 54 or have gone at least a year with no periods then you should be on a sequi HRT. Were you on sequi?

Hi ladies, thank you for your feedback. I'm 49 and had months with out a period. In fact some bleeds were not a period just an odd day or two of a bleed. . My gp was aware bit I had test and it came back menopausal so perhaps the decision was based on that? Its reassuring to know a bleed may be  okay a d will  ask the gp about sequi. Xxx hope u r all making progress

Maybe put the product name into the search box here and see what pops up?

Hi if you weren't 12 months period free it's likely that you are not ready for a Conti regime. You would need to give it up to 6 months to see if your body can settle on a Conti regime x

Hi
I had bleeding on everol conti patches on and of while I was using them and I'm 5 yrs post menopause.
Sometimes if it's not a full year from your last period you will get a bleed as ovaries still store eggs for a while ..
I bred up changing patches and have had no problens with bleeding  thankfully
