combined HRT is supposed to be bleed free- if you mean you take combined oestrogen and a progestin daily, rather than a cyclical HRT which is progestogen added for 12-14 days each month.

hi I am on micronized progesterone - not working on my monthly bleed may have to change it to something else,

It's ok we heard you the first time:)

Sorry- I don't understand. It doesn't matter what type you are on- if you take it every day then it should stop you bleeding.

What exactly do you take and when? Are you taking oestrogen too?

If you are taking utrogestan for 12 days a month that is not a continuous regime. That is sequential. Continuous it taking the progesterone every day or for at least 25 days out of 28. You ought to be taking a dose of 200mgs if you take it for 12 days a month. But it's not unusual for your bleeds to stop or be very light.

Thank you. I was a little worried as my body doesn't feel mine anymore,
