Bleeding on hrt
« on: May 10, 2024, 07:02:12 AM »

I'm currently on two pumps of gel morning and night and 5mg of proverb at night. It's like a very light period - is this normal? X

They usually say that you need to give any new HRT regime at least 3 months to settle. I was told to allow 6 months when I first started with evorel conti and had on and off bleeding.

Hi Dawn, I have exactly the same problem.. I have a mirena too and have had constant bleeding/mostly spotting with that.. so private specialist prescribed me everol 50 and 10mg of Provera to be taken every day.. was going so well for 1 week and the low and behold.. bleeding..
More that I would like.. it’s so bloody frustrating.. I’ve had years of this and am seriously considering a hysterectomy.
I’ve halved my patch to see if that helps for now. Seems our cycles might have been ‘underway’ before we started the Provera perhaps so bleeding could be normal period.. it doesn’t suppress ovulation either. Was hoping for years with no bleeding though as I’m sure you were.

Are you sticking with that regime?
