Title: Withdrawal bleed timing, is this normal?
Post by: flossie fiddler on March 26, 2014, 11:22:58 PM

Just getting ready to go to bed and I've started a bleed. I started using Evorel Sequi, I'm on my first pack and put my second Conti patch on last night. I was expecting a bleed at some point, but thought it might not happen until I've finished the Conti patches and am back on the estrogen only patch. As I'm only on day 19 I wondered if it was a bit early.

I had stomach cramps today and have felt anxious for a few days. I'm guessing this is probably normal for me? I know I will need to give things time to settle down.

Flossie that's exactly what happened to me, it only lasted 2/3 days so not sure if it was a proper period or not (mine are usually heavy cos I have the copper coil) but the strange thing was I didn't have a period when I got to the end of the packet which is when I would have expected it! X

Thanks for your response, Peri.  How long have you been on Evorel? Good to know it's not abnormal  :)
