Can someone advise me please ive posted a few times on here about problems with some bleeding im on ultrogeston 100mg and 2 and a bit pumps of oestogel, ive been on this since feb as my gp changed me from kliofem to this one as she said it was safer i seen a gynecology feb where i had polyps removed and had all clear on the biopsy but ive had problems with bleeding since then with tjis hrt my gp advised me to up to 200mg which i did fir 2 weeks but couldn't tolerate the effects jt give me so went back down to 100mg i use it vaginally, i have felt so good on it i have put up with the spotting i thought it would settle down but im away on holiday now and bleeding as got heavier so 3 days ago i upped back up to 200mg to see if it would stop ive felt ok this time but tonight im bleeding heavy where i hvnt even go e out its just being in a foreign country im worried do you think its best i stop it altogether to see if it stops or go straight back on kliofem which ive got with me any suggestions please its worrying me

Morning.

A change of water can cause hormones to alter.  MayB you are using too much 'extra' HRT at once, have you tried upping the dose a couple of times a week with a break between?

  How R your periods behaving in general?  HRT can interrupt the cycle sometimes.  Not what you want on holiday!!!!

I wouldn't alter anything until back home.  Let us know how you get on?

Ckld also ive been in hrt for years im nearly 58 and onky had this probkem since on the oestrogel and ultrogeston thats why im thinking go back on the kliofem

[Dotty]

hi if you were happy on Kliofem then I would say go back to that xxx

Dotty ive decided to stop hrt to see if the bleeding stops im going home then sat and if ive stopped the bleedimg then il go back on kliofem i was just worried as they say the other is safer

[Dotty]

hi utrogestan is slightly safer, but its quality of life thats important. x

Dotty so true its just ive had a few polyps removed while i was on kliofem i was thinking that the kliofem was the cause thats why u was trying to stick the gel and ultrogeston out but its only so much bleeding someone can put up with thanks for the reply i was just so worried last night it just didnt seem right to bleed so heavy

[Dotty]

I'm having the same problem.  Ive been on Oestrogel and Utrogestan quite happily for 4 years, but in the last year have had constant bleeding.  I've had all the scans and investigations and everything is fine. x

Dotty 4 years then bleeding it dont make sense does it they did tell me be4 it can be a side effect frim hrt   it finished me last night when i put a njce dress in ready 2 go out and it just poured from me i would if died if that had happened when i was out hope you get sorted, i was taking my hrt every evening and thwn i would bleed in morning then ease off throughout the day, so it looks like its to do with the hrt i jjst felt so good on this one xx
