Hi jazzfunkanneJust to add that this type is called "continuous combined HRT" for post-menopausal women - ie the no-bleed type.Some women find that after a long time without oestrogen, there is some irregular bleeding at first on this type which can continue for up to 6 months or so.You may prefer to start off by going onto to cyclical or sequential HRT which is designed to give a regular predictable bleed every 4 weeks - which you might find easier to cope with after so long being post-menopausal (ie rather than random bleeds). This also has the advantage of allowing you to distinguish between the side effects (if any) of the oestrogen and progestogen, before settling onto the type you will eventually stay with for some time.As Sarah2 says - the info is on the menu - cyclical types here:http://www.menopausematters.co.uk/perimeno.phpand continuous combined types here:http://www.menopausematters.co.uk/postmeno.phpGood luck!Hurdity x
