This is just really another way of asking about my painful bleeds!
Is anyone having sequential HRT, long cycle? If so how much bleeding do you have?
I never had heavy periods- ever- in the peri meno they just fizzled out and got lighter.
I think I must have had low oestrogen levels throughout my 40s because I was diagnosed with osteopenia at 47 and had bladder frequency/pain for years .
My bleeds now last for about 4-5 days with days 1-2 being heavy-ish - by that I mean when I sit on the loo the blood flows out - sorry for tmi. But I don't have flooding , then the bleeding slows down quite quickly after 2 days and days 3-5 are lighter.
At the moment the only way I can see to reduce the bleeding is to have shorter cycles perhaps, try reducing the eostrogel, or take more progesterone. I'll discuss with my dr and I know he'll advise, but wanted to try to get some benchmark of what happens to other women!
