From the booklet 'HRT and You':
https://www.menopausematters.co.uk/pdf/HRTandYou.pdf

"There are three main types of HRT: oestrogen only, cyclical and continuous combined HRT."

"Continuous combined or period-free HRT.
This is recommended for women who have not had a period for at least one year and are therefore post-menopausal. Period-free HRT contains similar hormones to cyclical HRT but, as the name suggests, it does not cause regular bleeding."
