Title: Bleeding
Post by: MoaningMyrtle on February 16, 2023, 11:18:33 AM

Hi, I'm on  Evorel Conti patches and use estradiol 10mg pessary.  I've also been prescribed testogel.

I have been on HRT for over 2 years.

I did forget to change my patch on my usual day last week and am now bleeding slightly. 

Should I be worried and contact my GP?

Nope.  It's probably the adjustment of hormone levels.

It's most likely to be the patch change but if you're worried about you could see your gp. How old was the patch when you changed it?
