REPLIED

Yes this would be a help until you can be seen. Also you may want to try a product called Remifemin which can help with symptoms of pre-menopause which could be the case here as hormonal changes can cause a change in your cycle and the Remifemin can help with the symptoms of this. But try the cream as this will be a help until you can be seen and it will not cause any harm whatsoever.

Is it possible that the progesterone cream..(which Im rubbing in now!!) may relieve the breakthru bleeding for this weekend? (Having guest come in town) and wasn't prepared for this since since my last period stopped 13 days ago!!

THANK YOU!

ACCEPTED

Yes it is possible but just starting today it may not as it takes a couple of days for the progestrone to take effect although it may minimize it considerably. I have seen both cases where it has been a help immediately and some where it has taken a couple of days but since it is Wednesday you have time for it to take effect so chances are good in your favor. I know this can be a real inconvenience so I highly hope this will be a help to you but make sure you are seen by your physician as soon as possible so they can help to get this under control. It may even be a help to request BCP again for the time being as this can help to regulate your cycles as well. And you are so very very welcome!!!!
