Hi Ladies, I'm 54 , peri menopausal had a period July 2014, then overnight had hot sweats could not sleep fog brain the list goes on, after 3 months without a period was prescribed prempak-C, had a monthly bleed , it did control symptoms but came off HRT after 5months due to side effects.
Was off HRT for 3 months and the symptoms returned, I did read once you reach the age of 54 you could go on combined HRT , was prescribed Evorel conti , I have been on it 7 weeks and had 4 lots of breakthrough bleeding like a heavy period, cramps & pain . After reading an article posted by Heather Currie it reassured me that it looks as though my ovaries may still producing hormones and may cause stimulation of the womb lining and bleeding is more common. Although I feel very good on this HRT, I do not want a bleed every 10 days, any suggestions ? Thank you
