Hi all, hope you're all well. It's been a while.
I started on Evorel Sequi in March 2014 aged almost 49, and the benefits far outweighed any problems.
At a routine smear test shortly after I started on it, a tiny polyp was discovered on my cervix, which my gynae thought may be contributing to my irregular bleeding since starting HRT. I had lots of investigations, including scans, both external and internal, and a visit to the gynae surgeon at the hospital, but my bleeds settled down somewhat so he decided to leave well alone.
Over the past 6 months or so I've noticed that my bleeds are heavier and more prolonged, lasting around 10 days, and with spotting when I change from the 50 to the conti patch.
I've been really lucky that the first HRT treatment I went on seemed to be the one, but I'm wondering if things need tweaking now. I've made an appointment today, but can't get in to see my doc until 11th April.
Apart from the bleeds being heavy and prolonged, everything else is hunky dory. Just wondered if anyone had had similar experience and what the outcome was?
I would like to stay on HRT as long as I can, and last time I saw my gynae, she said I was like a different person, and so long as I was aware of the risks, there was no reason why I couldn't be on it until into my 70s!
Look forward to reading your responses.
