I have been on HRT for 3 years, nearly 52 and started taking it when still having monthly periods. I used to take progesterone for 25 days and then have a 5 day gap but in March this year my consultant and I decided to put me on permanent progesterone as I hadn't had a period for about 10-12 months.

Since my vaccination I have had 2 "periods", the second one I blew up like a balloon and put on 7lbs of weight and felt absolutely hideous. I put that down to a one off but 7 weeks later and here I am again, eating uncontrollably, hideous achy feeling, convinced I am going to come on but nothing ever there when I go to the loo. My stomach is so distended and bloated, I feel so uncomfortable :( This has been going on for about a week!!!

I don't expect any advice really, but arrgghhh sick of it!
