Came off HRT - 3rd month of bleeding

In October I stopped HRT (long story but basically only the implant worked for me and I can no longer afford it) and since then I have had continuous heavy bleeding. I regularly flood through two tampons and multiple pads. TMI but often there are large clots on the tampons / in the loo etc.

I have been to the docs and have had blood tests and am waiting for an ultrasound and the results.

Has anyone had this experience? How worried should I be? Should I be pushing the GP more?

The only other side effect I am having is dizziness which started this weekend which may not be connected.

Hi-I have just stopped HRT after 8 weeks as the bleeding has been non stop(while on the HRT)- soaking through tampons and pads- doctor advised it can take up to 6 months to settle- I couldn’t continue like this so I stopped 5 days ago…bleeding has almost stopped and I feel back in control of myself… I too had dizzy spells which I didn’t at the time link with HRT but now you’ve mentioned it it all makes sense!! As well as the bleeding almost stopping so too have the dizzy spells…
I am 53 and for the time being am just going to try and ride it out without HRT…the bleeding, upset stomach and dizzy spells were just too much to put up with !
