When should I bleed after stopping progesterone?
« on: August 16, 2016, 12:39:35 AM »

Hi everyone,

I started on 25 mcg estradot and 100mg Utrogestan (for 14 days) 3 weeks ago.

I stopped the progesterone 2 days ago and had some spotting but haven't had a bleed yet.

Is this normal?


Thanks in advance

Takes me 3 to 4 days typically.

soniad - if your oestrogen levels are still low (which they may well be) then your womb lining may not have built up enough to give anything to shed -  so the bleeding may well be very light or even non existent for the first few months. Many women get very light bleeds when on HRT that only last 3-4 days at most and some actually never get a bleed. Hope you are starting to get some symptom relief? DG x
