Title: Femseven sequi advice
Post by: Millie02 on July 07, 2018, 11:12:19 AM

I am about to start femseven sequi patches. Can anyone tell me at what stage will I have a bleed?? Is it at the end of second phase 2 patch. Any advice please. Thanks.
I originally had Mirena but had removed as it was 6 years old and GP tests had indicated menopause. Gp put me on conti hrt but then realised I was still having periods so changed to sequi. Don't really want another Mirena.

Hi Millie - When I was on these patches my bleed would start two days after finishing the second phase 2 patches. It is usually the withdrawal of progesterone which causes the bleed. If it's the first time you've used FemSeven then it's worth following the application directions to the letter as they do tend to fall off before the week is up!
