Hi there, omg this is exactly how I've been. I started HRT in October (evorel patches) & have had bleeding on & off since then but this week has been particularly bad, very similar to yourself, extremely heavy (never even had periods like this) and with clots too, i was beginning to get quite worried. I knew it was normal to expect bleeding in the first 3 to 6 months but I never expected it to be this bad so I'm very relieved to read it's normal & that it's good to have clots and that possibly I had built up quite a bit of lining since my periods had stopped 14 months before starting HRT. My bleeding is finally today beginning to slow down, I thought it would never end

. I guess it is worth hanging on & persevering for a few more months as i feel really well apart from the bleeding. How are you feeling on the Elleste Jube apart from the bleeding? Hope you're getting some relief. Take care x
