Bleeding whilst using Evorel Conti Patches

Hello there, I'm hoping for some thoughts/advice/reassurance if possible.

I'm 53 and started HRT at the beginning of May this year. I was prescribed Evorel Conti patches as a continuous combined regime.
I've been fine on it, up until just over a week ago and since then, I've been having a light bleed. Not too heavy, but definitely more than spotting and definitely "there"
I'd just appreciate any input really. I know that breakthrough bleeding can happen, I suppose I'd have expected it before now, rather than 5 months in. It's so annoying and inconvenient!!

TIA Smile

Hi! I've just searched Evorel Conti threads and found yours. Just wanted to say I'm in the same position. I started the patches last June 2020 aged 53 and had 2 bleeds in December, 2 weeks apart but lasting the length of my old periods. Just wondered if you had asked your GP. Apart from that I have had no side effects at all (that I know of) and think the patches are brilliant!

Hi @SWCharlie
Thankfully, I've not had any problems since, so I didn't bother speaking to my GP. I had a bleed for around 2 weeks and nothing since. Hope the same happens for you. It's great that the patches are suiting you Smile
