Description
Kate’s Question: Hi, I’ve been doing extensive research and I came across your site. I don’t know if you’re still responding to email questions or not, but I thought I’d give it a try. I just completed my first year of no periods. Dryness, I have the beginning of atrophy, is really my only issue. But I was given 50/50 ratio Biest, one gram a day. I do that vaginally as an insertion for two weeks, and then I reduce it to two times a week after that. I don’t do any progesterone, but this is what my experience has been. After the first full week, I started bleeding. After the second week, it became heavier bleeding. So then they put me on it for a third week and I was supposed to drop down my Biest 50/50, but I continued bleeding. So, I do feel great. And now it’s week four, and the bleeding is starting to taper and I’m loving this but worried about the bleeding. So just wondering your about your thoughts. Thank you, Kate.
Short Answer: With our patients, we don’t use Estradiol vagainlly in order to minimize any unwanted spotting or bleeding. We only use Estriol for vaginal use as it is a “weaker” hormone and less likely to cause any bleeding issues.

Short Answer: With our patients, we don’t use Estradiol vagainlly in order to minimize any unwanted spotting or bleeding. We only use Estriol for vaginal use as it is a “weaker” hormone and less likely to cause any bleeding issues.
