Hope you get some answers. I’ve suffered with bleeding on Conti do I know what it’s like. x

Although I have been advised several times to get a Mirena and I have always very firmly refused and explained why, the response from the gynae clinic is "get a Mirena coil". Their reasoning is that it's a low progesterone dose, and will reduce progesterone side-effects, so now I don't know whether my dose is too low or too high. And I am not getting a sodding Mirena. As useful as a chocolate teapot, thanks gynae clinic.

thanks Dotty. I'll wait to see what the menopause clinic has to say then reconsider.

If you're not meno it's unlikely anything except a mirena will control the bleeding. As you've been on hrt for some time I think you won't know if you are or not? If I was in your shoes I'd go back to a sequi regime and perhaps try conti again in another year.

I doubled the dose of progesterone, with GP's agreement, and so far, 12 days later, haven't had a bleed and I'm sleeping better. I'd rather not go back to sequi and have yet more upheaval.
