Taking Bio-identical Estradol Implanted Pellet Hormones. Diagnosed With Anemia Due To Bleeding, Low Progesterone Levels. Any Suggestions?
I have been using bio-identical estradiol implanted pellet hormones for five years and for the past month have had vaginal bleeding.
My labs showed that I have become anemic and my progesterone is very low. The progesterone cream that I am
using has helped to mitigate the bleeding somewhat. Do you have any suggestions?

Hi,
In the current scenario, you should reinspect your decision to continue with the estrogen pellets. You may use progesterone as it will help to minimize blood loss. Also, you should contact a specialist for a complete evaluation to exclude other causes of bleeding. You would need nutritional supplements to improve your general condition.Eat well and avoid stress and maintain a healthy body weight. Hope your query is answered. Good luck.
