Just entered my 3rd week of Estalis Sequ patches, was expecting a period but nothing, should I be concerned?
Felt great first two weeks no side effects at all 👌😀
Was having breakthrough bleeding on Tiberlone Livial so Menopause Clinic Dr switched me to the patches. Think it has boosted libido.
Love to to hear from anyone using the sequential patches.
Thank you x
I’m using climara pro and within 2 days got a period then a week later got another one ?
It’s starting to work for me and from what I’ve read you can bleed until it levels out .... wonder why your dr changed your patch ?
That's normal - I've been on two types of sequential patches and you should bleed after you finish the progesterone/oestrogen patches which are used during the last two weeks of the month - so expected bleed should be at end of week 4 and during beginning of week 5 when you start on the oestrogen only patches again... it's the withdrawal of progesterone which commences the breakdown of the womb lining causing a bleed.
Are you in the UK as I haven't heard of these patches before and I've had lots of side effects from the others!
I'm going to look into these! Hope you continue to feel well using these.

Hi there, thanks for your informative and helpful reply. Since writing my query I have have a 3-4 day bleed, was very heavy for a day with some clotting, but totally finished now.
I am in Australia and only just started this after going off the amazing Tiberlone Livial which helped everything, so fingers crossed this is as good as that was.
Going to start a journal to record anything from here on in, due to past brain fog I forget what has happened at certain times 😩
This is such a debilitating time for some of us.
No side effects to date, will keep you posted 😘

Why did you go off the patch that was working for you ?
I’m having a hard time on the patch and wondered how one is different from the other ?
I’m so confused with all this 😩
Oh gosh, Australia! No wonder I hadn't heard of these patches over here!!
Glad you're feeling better about things and have had a bleed, at least things are behaving as they should!!
Yes, defo keep us all posted. Good luck!
