Guest guest Posted November 30, 2005 Report Share Posted November 30, 2005 Hi, . Which blood tests are you referring to? When I was taking birth control pills to regulate my cycle, I took them as directed on the package. Later, my endocrinologist had me taking a lower-estrogen pill. Then later, when the " pill " didn't work for me, I was just taking oral progesterone (Provera) for 12 days each month. And on day 13 my period would come (most of the time). When I recently had a blood test to see if indeed I was menopausal, I was still taking the Provera at the time. But when the test results were back, my doctor said I didn't have to take them anymore. In fact, he hasn't prescribed anything, or HRT. He didn't seem worried, since I really don't have any bad menopause symptoms. Thanks for your questions...I don't mind at all, if I can be of any help.
