Title: bleed on utrogeston and estrodot
Post by: Emm225 on June 23, 2020, 07:51:29 PM
Hi, a bit worried cos have been on continuous utrogeston tablets and estridot, which I was told to take continuously when I started it at the end of March.  I was told this as had the Mirena out (never had periods whilst it was in but after 15 years or more was getting spotting ) in November and didn't have any bleed at all afterwards.  I am 54 by the way!

Is it normal to have break through bleeds?  Not much...just a bit. Although the HRT has abated my sweats and anxiety a bit (altho less so lately) my skin has become worse on my face..rash of spots.

It isn't unusual when you start a conti routine. I think they suggest 6 months to let it settle. At 54 it's possible you haven't reached meno yet and as you had a mirena you wouldn't know.
