Hi all, newbie here. I’ve been reading for a while but thought it about time I joined. I’m very early 50s, peri for about 2 years, started Evorel Sequi about 8 months ago. All was ok to start with, HRT got rid of horrible hip pain, and even the awful progesterone period that made me weepy eventually settled down. But this month, the breakthrough bleeding floored me; I was literally flooding through Super Plus tampons plus a sanitary towel. So I’ve stopped Sequi cold turkey.
It’s so reassuring (but awful) to see other women in the same situation. As if peri/meno isn’t bad enough, we now have to deal with issues that we never used to have! I was on Cilest birth control for 30 years, light periods, no issues and only stopped that as I couldn’t get a prescription filled during the pandemic.
Anyway have decided to wait until I hit menopause and then might try continuous HRT, but for now I’m done.
Thanks for listening and for this amazing forum.
