just stopped taking Livial as the side effects were awful.
I have been on HRT a number of years, starting on combined patches but switched to estradot and utrogestan due to side effects with the progesterones in the patches. All well until last year when I had terrible bouts of bleeding that could last for weeks. Scan showed fibroids which I was told were stimulated to grow by the hrt. A few months ago I had a hysteroscopy privately and then put on livial. Good news is I have not bled since but have put on a stone in weight , have terrible sensations in my head of a feeling it is about to burst open and my blood pressure which is normally controlled with tablets has shot up. I also have developed a quick temper and am quite aggressive , my husband says my personality has changed since I started taking livial. I googled livial and have found numerous articles about the side effects. I am waiting to see my GP next week but felt I had to stop taking the tablets , only been a few days but I do feel better.
Now worried that all my menopausal symptoms will come back, not sure what to do going forward.
