Cycle regime for 8 years, is it safe ?
« on: May 23, 2024, 06:40:08 PM »

So today I had my HRT review and the Dr informed me I am only supposed to be on a cycle regime for max of 5yrs when post menopausal? I am 62 and almost 10yrs post menopause, I have been on my current regime of utrogestan for 12 days along with evorel 50 patch for 8 and half year's. I never knew anything about 5yrs max? Dr said I can stay on it as long as I am aware of the risks and take note of any changes in bleeding. Any info or advice welcome, thank you

I'm staying on sequi too because of side effects from utro. They told me there's a slightly higher risk of endometrial cancer this way but I'll take that over being permanently doped.

If you’re happy as you are then stay on it. There are slight risks but quality of life is important.
