Hi NRGEE
I'm really sorry to hear you feel so rough.
You say you were put on Femoston to help protect against osteoporosis (I also have borderline osteopenia), was this Femoston 1/10, 2/10 or the conti version?
If it was either of the first 2, then they are a sequential method which would give you a withdrawal bleed. My experience with Femoston is that you get your withdrawal bleed at the end of the pack and usually a day or two into the beginning of the next pack ( you take them back to back). I am sorry I don't have any experience nor have I ever seen someone having additional progesterone (provera) on top of the progesterone in sequential HRT but I know many ladies including myself who do not react positively to progesterone.
Can you tell us were you still going through perimenopause at the time or had your periods stopped? Hopefully some more experienced ladies than I will be along soon with some words of wisdom, in the meantime wishing you all the best for your birthday x
