Progesterone only Pill & HRT

[Bumbleboom]

Can anyone help please? I think I have read somewhere that you can stay on the POP when on HRT but can’t recall where I saw it and what it said about supplementary progesterone. Thinking specifically about Utrogestan and how the dose would work … wanting to be armed with correct info when I talk to GP.
Thanks.

I am on the mini pill. I take utrogestan 100mg every single night and oestrogel 2-4 pumps daily.

Thank you … that looks like what I have read elsewhere!

@Bagelsandbrie, do you take a break from the Utrogestan, ie 25 days on 3 off, or do you just take it continuously like the mini pill?

Continuously. Never have a break from either. It works really well for me. I never have any bleeding. No periods.

Great, thank you.

If anyone is around, the GP has prescribed the Utrogestan for 25 days with a 3 day break. Given I take the progesterone only pill continuously and don’t have any bleeds (nor do I want them), how is this going to work out? Will the break from Utrogestan force a bleed? Is it okay to take it how it has been prescribed? It may be right but I think I’ve read that it should be taken continuously as @Bagelsandbrie takes it.

Thanks
