HRT - does it make your periods go odd?

Hi
Last months period 4 days late.
Since then been out on HRT due to lots of other hormonal related issues.
I seem to be coming on after only a week on HRT and I am not due til next weds/thurs.
Is this normal?

I'm just on my second month of HRT (elleste duet 1mg) and started revving up with a bit of bleeding 5 days towards the end of the progesterone only tablets and started with a proper period on day 3 of the second batch of the oestrogen only ones. It's certainly been very different to usual. But then the peri-menopause can make periods go odd all on its own without any HRT in my experience.

When I read the leaflet it said it's usual to bleed in the first five days of the oestogen only tabs and that's what happened in my case. Which ones are you on Badvoc?

Ah.
I am on zumenon and the leaflet didn't say anything about bleeds After 5 days (and it's been 7 now)
Will pop off and read the leaflet again....
I am not in progesterone, just the oestrogen for some reason...

Hi, I've just started my first bleed with Elleste Duet 1mg. Can anyone tell me how long the bleeds usually last? I'm only on day 2 but extremely painfull and heavy!
