[quote=Anonymous]Yes. At 53 I was put on progesterone only BC pills due to heavy bleeding. They are very low dose and don't have the blood clot risk combined pills w/estrogen have. My blood pressure is very low for my age. My sister didn't complete menopause until 57. I have been on them 3 months and it's made my sleep so much better and I don't get hot at night anymore. I also barely bleed--GYN told me the pills (which are taken daily--no week off) can prevent any period in some people--much like Mirena which was also mentioned as in option. I prefer the start-stop myself option of BCs and didn't want the insertion--pull out bother with Mirena when I could be done with menopause in a year or so. I was put on it for a year and next summer we will re-visit and see where I am.[/quote]
