I was wondering if the reason I might be having a bad time changing to femoston conti is because it is a very low dose 1/5
I having the feeling someone said it was quite low for my age 55 but can't remember as I 've been quite muddled .

Still don't really understand the dosages thing as I was on 1 mg progesterone before and now 5 mg so that seems like a big hike to me or are some stronger say like diluted squashes if they're concentrated u don't need as much ! 

Now I come to think of it the gyna did say in his words it was a piddling amount 

Hope someone can educate me as the internet is either to medical or I'm too stupid !

Hi and welcome to MM hellsiow
It would be better to start your own thread so more ladies can respond with help and advice.
I'd read through the leaflet that came with the HRT as I'm sure it will mention cramps and some discharge and/or bleeding or spotting as quite normal in the first few weeks and months.
A bit more info about you would also be helpful - your age and how long it has been since your last period?
I expect the cramps could be making your bowels work a bit more often and this will settle. Most of these type of side effects settle so it's matter of being patient. I hope that helps.  DG xx
