Hi ladies- any suggestions greatly appreciated. I'm off to the Galpagos in March and my cyclical patches and Utrogestan combo will be such that I will start my bleed around day 2-3 of the start of my holiday. Given that it will be hot, there will be lots of activity ( hiking, snorkelling etc ) I don't think that I could hack having a bleed given that it can last up to 7 days, sometimes longer. I'm not also sure I can hack the wiped out feeling that I get after 10 days on Utrogestan ( like today )
I'm due to start my new Utrogestan cycle on 5th February and I'm wondering if I should give it a miss and just continue with my patches and no Utrogestan til I come back.
I really am thinking of trying to stop HRT altogether but I suspect now is not the time. My bleeding is starting to get a bit erratic again but I'm not too bothered as it's happened before and nothing is amiss. I just don't think I'm absorbing that well from the patches x
