Hi all, long story short(ish) … I was put on daily progesterone only (Norethisterone) a couple of years ago due to having long and heavy periods with a lot of flooding. Tests showed minor fibroids but nothing too bad. I take no other hormone meds, have had no problems at all on prog and since starting it have not had a period but did have spotting for a couple of days each month when my period would have been due but over the last 6 months I’ve not even had that.
I’m 54 now and wondering whether I still need prog or if my periods may have stopped naturally by now so I’m thinking of stopping the prog to see what happens.
I’m trying to get a gp appt to discuss it but in the meantime was just wondering if anyone here has experience of coming off prog after a few years and whether it’s best to just stop or to come off gradually?
Thanks in advance for any suggestions 🙂
