Hi everyone,

I had chemotherapy back in 2019 which brought on menopause - I was just about to turn 40.  I had hot flushes and other symptoms so started taking Femeston 1/10mg which really seemed to help and I have been on it ever since.  My female GP recommended this one as it has a combination of hormones that apparently mimics what I would have had naturally since I was fairly young and likely still to having periods.

However, I am now bleeding for about 2 weeks out of four, as soon as I move onto the progestogen tablet and I wondered whether it would be worth me moving to a different one? My GP who was great has unfortunately left and I have no idea about it all.  I would love to hear about others' experiences.  I am now 44 1/2 years.

Hi!  It may be an idea to up the amount ?   Hopefully some1 will be along to offer advice, or you could put the product names into the search box on the Forum. Individually to see if threads pop up; make notes.

Just a thought but as it was a few years ago, is there any chance your own hormones are kicking in again.

That is a good point, I wonder if I should ask?  I never thought of that...

Some find that keeping a mood/symptom/food diary of use.
