Hi Hurdity,
Sorry for (very) late reply, and thanks for the information which I have taken on board.
Since posting about the fibroids problem, I have been trying to address issues with inflamed and very sore breasts which has eclipsed the fibroids for the time being. I have posted details on a post entitled 'Switching to Tibolone', the drug I finally started yesterday. A breast consultant advised me to stop taking Utrogestan as after 8 years of using Estradot and Utrogestan my left breast is very dense, (ultrasound and mammogram,) and apparently more likely to develop cancer. I think the consultant would have liked me to stop HRT altogether, but that is unthinkable as whenever I have experimented with less or no HRT, all symptoms have returned. Therefore, I researched Tibolone and it does not seem to affect breast tissue as much, if at all. Hopefully the fibroid problem will ease as I will not be bleeding (I hope) on Tibolone. Apparently I have multiple fibroids (which were probably causing the monstrously heavy bleeding every month) and led to a very low ferritin count.
