I'm 67 & have been taking HRT for 17 years, first Kliofem for a couple of years then I was switched to Femoston Conti. In January I was diagnosed with persistent atrial fibrillation & put on anticoagulants (blood thinners). After taking them for a month I noticed that I started to get a lot of bleeding which became very heavy and never ending so I decided to come off HRT 2 months ago & blood thinners 1 month ago. However, I am still getting erratic bleeding and painful cramps. My doctor gave me Norethisterone to stop the bleeding but when I stop taking it, the bleeding returns after a couple of days. I had a hysteroscopy last week, biopsy result still awaited but the doctor said I must stop taking HRT & Norethisterone and wait to see if bleeding settles, which it has not. It is ruining my life, so heavy and painful and I don't know what to do. Has anyone else ever experienced something similar, do you think there are any possible solutions to stop the bleeding and cramps, other than a hysterectomy? Thanks so much, xxx
