Can testosterone cause bleeding, like upping your oestrogen can?

I'm 57, 5 years without periods

I have had bouts of post menopausal bleeding on HRT, always after upping my Oestrogen dose. I had a scan which was clear.

My menopause specialist prescribed 20mg of Provera daily which stopped the bleeding- now 5 months without any. She said some women have a womb which wants to bleed.

I started testosterone last week, and today have had some spotting. I'm so fed up as I thought I had cracked it.

Is bleeding expected in the first 4-6 months of taking testosterone like it is if you change your Oestrogen dose does anyone know? Thanks.
