Hi everyone just wondering if any ladies have had bleeding episodes on hrt. I'm at the doctor's this afternoon because I've been bleeding for around 3 weeks without any break,was hoping it would just stop but I've finally bit the bullet and made the appointment but now really dreading what they will say and worried about the c word . Has anyone else had experience of this please . |

I wasn't on HRT but I had two incidents of bleeding after menopause one after around thirteen months and then again a few months later
It turned out that it was my reproductive organs having one last party.
It might be the HRT I had a couple of incidences of unexpected bleeding whil using the mirena coil but as you're wisely doing it's best to get checked out.
Best wishes for your appointment. Hope it's all fine |

Yes, are you on sequi or conti patches? Sequi make you bleed, conti you shouldn’t bleed after 6 months of being on it. I had to go for a Hysteroscopy, and they will probably suggest the same, but give your hrt time if it’s been less than 6 months |

Yes. Was on oestrogen. Helped a little with menopausal symptoms. Increased dose and bled. Ended up coming off of the hrt.
You're wise going to GP. |

I had gone 10 months without a period. I then started hrt patches and I bleed for 3 weeks, off for 3 days then back on for another 3 months. Went to the gp and it was caused by the patches. I stopped them and haven’t had a period since (around 16 months) |

I'm so tempted to stop but the NHS seems to want you to stay on hrt and feel like I should trust them because they have experience where as I don't , they have upped my hrt and changed it slightly so hopefully this works .. thanks everyone for your replies . |

Similar. Nothing for about 3yrs but meno symptoms were overwhelming. Tried hrt but would rather have meno symptoms than back to bleeding so came off it and now using vitamins to help |

The first HRT I tried made me bleed for 3 months. GP was concerned it was something more serious but all tested negative.
I'm now on a dual hornone HRT and have a small bleed monthly.
It's most likely nothing to worry about but best to get it checked out and ask about alternative HRT options.

"I regularly bleed for between 10 and 21 ish days. Docs say its normal. Darent come off HRT cos I was suicidal before I went on it. Can't bloody win!  "
I wouldn't say this is normal. I woukd ask about trying different HRT.
