Kliofem reviews

1 reviews
Kliofem contains a low dose of oestrogen combined with a synthetic progesterone called norethisterone. This is a really well established progesterone that has been used for years. It can be good at controlling breakthrough and irregular bleeding side effects, but comes with a slightly increased blood clot risk. You may experience side effects such as bloating, sore breasts or mood change. This tablet contains the same hormones as Kliovance , which is its lower dose sister.

Method
Continuous
Continuous HRT is where you take the same dose of both oestrogen and progesterone every day. It is used when your periods have stopped or when you have used cyclical HRT for more than 1 year. The aim of continuous HRT is to prevent bleeding.
Combined (oestrogen and progesterone)
Oestrogen is the main component of HRT. If you have a uterus you should use HRT which also contains progesterone, or alongside progesterone to protect the womb lining (endometrium) from overgrowing as this can increase the risk of endometrial cancer.
