Hello - thanks for letting me join. I could seriously do with some suggestions please.
I’ve been on HRT for nearly two years. Last December I changed from Evorel Sequi to Evorel Conti continuous and bleeding started having not had a period for a year. Also on mini pill.
After 3 months I changed to Utrogestan continuously (1 tablet a night) and the bleeding stopped instantly. Felt better on gel x 2 pumps and Utrogestan.
A month later the bleeding started again. Had scan and womb lining perfect. Subserous fibroids x 2.
Put back on cyclical regime of Utrogestan and gel (2 pumps). Bleeding just minor spotting once or twice a month, but this is improving, but when I’m not taking the Utrogestan I wake lots for a wee and generally feel like I’m seriously missing the Utrogestan - bloating, terrible wind and more anxiety.
So my lovely supportive GP agreed with my BMS research to double Utrogestan and try a continuous regime again. I told her I’d already started a trial run, so the next day I started spotting - it’s not come to much yet. This would be day 25, so I’m wondering if a three or even five day reset might help? So no Utrogestan for three to five days? I know the instructions call for a three day break, but this is not necessary- but could it help me?
I’m just desperate to make the Utrogestan work, so I’m keen to hear what others do, so I can approach my Gp with ideas - she’s really HRT friendly, but I’m thinking I’ll need to go privately if I can’t solve this.
Thanks for wading through all that! I’m 52 btw.
