I am a 54-year old female, and active with one sex partner. I was taking progesterone (not synthetic, 150 mg each night) to treat an endometrial problem (which I’ve been checked and it is back to normal). My gyn doctor took me off the progesterone for 2 weeks, but, I did not feel like myself, and ask that she put me back on. She checked me to make sure my endometrium was normal, and it was, so put me back on the progesterone capules, 100mg). I then noticed that my vagina was feeling dryer than normal, so she put me on biest 0.624 mg. I’ve been on the biest capsules for a month, but just this week have started spotting (dark brown). I am wondering what this could be? Could I have been pregnant at my age? Or could this be some other female-related problem with my hormones? I have been trying to get pregnant, but have not had a period for many months, and am not sure if you can get pregnant without having a period.
Thank you,
Elizabeth
