Hi Pixie2uk
I think this is something that you need to get checked out.
Have you got a number to call your CNS? or if not give your GP a call.
It may well be expected with the hormonal treatment but it may mean that the treatment needs reviewing. Best to report it and at the least get some reassurance.

I was DX 2 years in 2022 after getting a Polyp removed I was bleeding for long periods when I was having my Polyp removed without anaesthetic the consultant put the coil in and prescribed Hormones 2 three times a day which stopped the bleeding unfortunately after a year, year half the bĺeeding came back with a vengeance as well as having period symptoms cramping soar boob's massive clots so I was changed onto another Hormone treatment but took adverse reactions to it, I actually thought I was going to take a heart attack with palpitations every ten to fifteen min so I was put back onto my first Hormones but a higher dose of six tablets three times a day and it done the part of the job stopped the heavy bleeding but I did have small stringy clots when going to pee plus period symptoms but I was happy the bleeding had stopped as I had been bleeding for about 6 or 7 months. So please contact your oncologist regarding the bleeding. My plus but might not be the case for everyone on Hormone treatment is I am cancer free and the the large amount of Hormone treatment had done the job and contained the cancer and it grade.
All the best Williamina x
