Hi Hurdity
I am a bit confused to be honest too lol
In a nutshell - all dates approximate due to meno brain ;
2nd mirena fitted 2010 periods continued as normal
Last period Feb 2012
Oestrogen only patch May 2013 due to disrupted sleep/overheating.
Mirena removed Dec 2014 and oestrogen and progesterone patch started
June/July 2015 three heavy period like bleeds
June ultrasound shows 11mm thickened lining
End july hysteroscopy and biopsies taken at end of period - Gyne said lining thin. Biopsy results 'proliferative endometrium unusual in post menopause' so stopped taking HRT as still bleeding
August Blood test confirms post menopause - v high FSH high LH and very low oestrogen.
September- 2nd hysteroscopy lining non existent. Biopsies taken waiting results. Mirena fitted. Told to wait 1 month before starting hrt - just to make sure bleeding stopped.
10 days after Mirena fitted started Vagifem as very sore. Took Vagifem for two days and started spotting again....
On advice of Gyne have today started Vagifem again and will continue for 10 days despite spotting. If still bleeding after 10 days need to stop and contact Gyne again.
I think I am post menopause. I wonder if I did not absorb progesterone well from patch hence lining build up
Anyway nothing sinister - just confusing and inconvenient but I will be ok shortly
