Hi There
I know there have been similar posts to these (and quite reassuring) but they are quite old now and I wonder if I could throw this out there to get anybody's similar experience.
I started on Evorel Conti patches in October 2021 and almost a month later I had a bleed for about a week, and have had a bleed practically ever other week since. Also, the patches haven't really affected the other menopause symptoms I had too - not sleeping through, low mood etc. However, they wiped out the hot flushes and reduced the night sweats a bit.
I've just had a consultation with my doc who is having me in next week for an internal examination and they will then refer me for a scan and a biopsy. Reading the previous threads on similar topics, I realise that this seems to be standard practice.
Before I started the HRT, I was about 2.5 years without a period and had struggled with the symptoms before I went to the doc before starting the patches.
What I'd like to know from other users, who else has had an experience like this please and what happened. I've seen threads that say bleeding can continue up to 6 months whilst taking Evorel, and I'm just past 3 months.
I'll truthfully admit I'm a tad bothered by this - I just expected to be changed onto another brand of patch
.
So, if anybody has any experience of this, I'd love to know how they went on.
Thank you x
