What Causes Constant Heavy Bleeding For 4 Months After HRT?

In may 2009 I received hrt: estradeiol:20 and testostern 125 implant and progesterone 200mg cap daily. It lasted four months, I never went back i had insomnia but the hrt didn't help. then nine months later I start bleeding lots of red blood with black clots. I have been bleeding now for four months. Should I see a doctor?

Hello
I have gone through your question and understood your concern.

Hormone replacement therapy (HRT) replaces hormones that are at a lower level as you approach the menopause and it is helpful to relieve symptoms of the menopause.

But as all the treatements there are a lot of possible side affects.

You had an abnormal and prolonged or excessive uterine bleeding for four months.

In my opinion this can be a side effect of your HRT and for this reason you should see your treating doctor immediately.

I don't understand why you had not contacted your doctor earlier but i want to underline that this situation can be dangerous if it is not resolved.
So,don't ignore this problem any more but contact your treating doctor without delay.

Hope i have answered to your question.
If you have other doubts,feel free and ask.
Regards.
