Hi all,
Thanks for all of your responses. Well, I've just spoken to the the nurse practitioner at my GP and as I had a scan late last year, she is not alarmed and taking no action at this time and said I can wait to see the NHS gynae next month. She said that bleeding can start up on HRT. She said that it's probably my fibroids! She said that utrogestan isn't the best progesterone for stopping bleeding and if I were under her direct care, she would recommend norethisterone (given my history of endometriosis) but this is not body identical of course. She also said the mirena coil would be a good alternative. So for now, to try and stop the bleeding, she's asked me to double up on the utrogestan to 200mg per night (2x100mg) and take 1 pump of oestrogel one night, then two the next. I wondered if testosterone increases oestrogen too. I asked her and she said no, but google says yes.. She gave me blood test results which the gynae ordered, and my testosterone was 1.8 i.e. normal (it was less than 0.5 before i.e. abnormal) and my oestrodiol was a whopping 792!! So I must be absorbing well on two pumps! She said ideally she would like the oestrodiol levels to be 300-600. All very interesting. Oh and it was last reported that my largest fibroid was only 20.5mm, but I think this was before HRT. I hate to think how much they are growing now..
