Hi
took HRT last year but came off again. Symptoms are back with a vengeance so I'm seeing the doc again at the end of the month. timeline was
Apr2016 - last period
Nove 2016 - minor spotting
June 2017 - started on femiston conti, lowest dose.
worked great but the spotting didn't stop. So was put on a higher dose which resulted in two very heavy bleeds in Nove/Dec of last year. Scanned, checked out ok, all well, but I came off it.
So now, 6 months later, I'm desperate. I'd like to go back on HRT because it worked for the symptoms, but the bleeding and then the two really heavy periods were not fun. I don't want to use a mirena. But I don't want to have periods. Moon on a stick, I know.
What's the best option (I'm 53, btw)? Is my only choice to take sequi and put up with periods? Gah! would much prefer conti, but I'm not sure I was ready for it back then. might be now, but can't judge that owing to the two HRT induced periods last winter.
So complicated. Thank goodness I have a sympathetic doctor, but she'll tell me to use a mirena and I really don't want to.
