Hi everyone!
I started continuous HRT in March of this year and other than a period in August, my periods completely stopped. I woke up this morning and I have just started a period out of the blue. Is this normal? I’ve not changed my dosage etc.
I had a pelvic ultrasound 2 days ago as part of my 2 yearly Pap smear at the gynaecologist and everything was normal.
Has anyone else experienced a period on continuous HRT completely out of the blue?
I called my gyno office this morning and one of the receptionists asked my doctor and he said it's normal... and yet every single article I read on the internet says that bleeding is only normal on HRT in the first 6 months?
Edited to add: I am 42 and have been taking HRT (Bijuve - 1mg of oestradiol and 100mg progesterone) for 8 months. I started HRT because I was having lots of peri symptoms and my periods had become really irregular. I had not gone 12 months before starting on continuous HRT. I live in Germany and maybe the protocol is different here?
