Hi everyone, I've just been advised to try continuous HRT (100mg UTROGESTAN vaginally & 4 pumps Oestrogel every day. This is because I encountered too many issues with 200mg UTROGESTAN vaginally for 7 days a month whilst on 5 pumps of Oestrogel.
Why has the gyne recommended continuous versus sequential is my query?
I believe sequential is when you stop the progesterone for a set period of time so you have....what a ‘natural bleed'? Do you stop for 7 days, 14 days or are both options on the table?
Ive just turned 50, been on HRT for about 2 years & have no idea if o still have a natural cycle or not. How will i know if I should be on sequential? If I have lots of break through bleeding?
