Title: Missed HRT patch
Post by: SamP on February 24, 2023, 03:13:00 PM
Hi …. Advice needed
I took off my oestrogen patch on Tuesday and completely forgot to replace it! Realised 24 hours later and put it on … Thursday had bleeding which is easing off now … could this be due to forgetting patch? I’m on day 11 so have already had period and won’t take progesterone until first day of March. Had a scan in November due to some irregular bleeding and all ok … not sure what to think and if patch related?
Thanks I’m advance

Yep.  Doesn't take much for break-through bleeding.

Thank you so much  I’ve been really worrying about it and could only link it back to no patch for 24 hours … amazing how a bleed can happen with no oestrogen for a day … really appreciate you replying x
