Norethisterone

Does anyone use norethisterone as a daily progesterone alongside Oestrogen, to help control bleeding?

Bleeding is the bane of my life right now and I would give anything to just not bleed when on HRT.

I’m meant to be post menopausal, but since December 2020, I have bled on and off whilst on HRT.

I didn’t bleed between August 2018 ( last period) and December 2020, whilst on gel and utrogestan. That’s why o thought I was post menopausal.

Bleeding has been investigated and nothing sinister has been found.

Thanks.

Hi Blitzen50. Have only been on HRT for about 2 months and have been bleeding quite a lot. I thought it was a temporary side effect. Should I wait it out a while before worrying about it?
