« on: September 21, 2021, 02:42:01 PM »

Hello ,

Can anyone please help , am on Femoston 1/10mg , have been on since July .I had a Nasty period at the end of Aug. which i was told is common.
But now after finishing my 2nd lot of tablets am Bleeding again .
What i need help with is at the  end of Oct  am going on holiday and do not want a Period :-\ :-\ :-\
I spoke to the GP he couldn't  help me  so trying to some research on my own. i have read on here if take the whites ones it helps
but its confusing???

Or can i take another different tablet to stop me having a period while taking the Femoston??? any help would be great. Thank you. x

Does it make any suggestions in the leaflet in the box?

Also, put the name of the product into the search box on the forum 2 C what pops up?  Make notes ;-).

No experience of femseven so don't know which colour is which but you could take the oestrogen only ones for an extra week or two. You should bleed a couple of days after finishing the combined ones. If you have a strong cycle of your own you will bleed when it decides you're going to regardless of what you'veddone with the hrt.

Hi,

Tranexamic Acid will reduce blood flow and there is another tablet that can stop periods altogether for a short while. This has to be prescribed under the guidance of the G.P though and I don’t know if they would be compatible with yiur HRT.

Try going back to the G.P

Good luck x

Sweaty 68 those are for very heavy, continual bleeding for more than 4+ weeks.  To stop a period to go on holiday is a different issue so knowing how to do that, is useful.
