Bleeding with HRT patch
« on: March 20, 2021, 08:26:16 AM »

Following on from a previous post. I have bled again on the patch, I am on week 6. I went to the hospital a couple of weeks ago for an ultrasound and exam and she said all was fine.
I know it's pretty normal to get it in the first few months, however, the consultant said if I experienced more bleeding to go back for a hysteroscopy with a general.
I am inclined to leave it a couple more months??????

Hi if you’ve only been using the patches for 6 weeks then bleeding is quite normal x
