I know that 15% of women don't bleed on sequi. Well I do bleed on sequi but it is completely unpredictable when, sometimes on the evorel 50 bit sometimes on the conti bit sometimes not at all on either patch.
Does anyone think I will eventually sync? I've been on them 7 months. I thought one of the benefits was more predictable bleeds. I normally tell a bleed is coming as get a few night sweats and become anxious.
I'm not overly bothered luckily I don't have health anxiety and it really has helped my moods overall.
I might as well be on just the conti, but the consultant has said I have to wait another year before they will recommend it.

This shouldn't be happening for so long. Your cycle should have settled by now. Sometimes absorption can be an issue with patches so maybe you are not getting enough progesterone to control your cycle. I think a scan might be a good idea to see what's happening, as you womb lining may be building up. You might also do better with oestrogen patches and separate progesterone as pills - probably Provera would be best, as it is more powerful than Utrogestan and therefore more able to control your cycle.

I'm seeing my gp in a couple of weeks for a review so I'll bring it up. It is odd.
