After quitting HRT, it's been two weeks and I've had occasional spotting. Is this normal? I'm 65.

I was on HRT

pellet insertion for 8 months. I felt good but had periodic spotting and bleeding even after taking twice the dosage of progesterone. I finally gave up on the HRT and now after two weeks I've had occasional spotting but not daily. I feel very fatigued going off the hormones. Has anyone else felt this way or had this happen?

    Hello Suzan

    I wonder why you stopped the HRT.  Were you warned to expect occasional spotting.  I'd monitor the spotting and if it continues then have it checked out.  I can't comment on the tiredness.  I wonder if your sleeping pattern has been affected after coming off HRT.  All the best.  Lyn
