After menorrhagia, if the female hormone estrogen is suddenly stopped, what problems will occur?

Patient's question:

After the, female estrogen suddenly stops, what problems will estrogen reappear?

Doctor's answer:

Hello, I am very happy to help you solve your problem. Leukorrhea generally refers to irregular vaginal bleeding. Taking estrogen orally can make vaginal bleeding stop, achieving the purpose of relief. If estrogen is stopped suddenly, it may lead to a breakthrough vaginal hemorrhage. Therefore, estrogen use requires gradual dosage adjustment and cannot be stopped abruptly. Stopping medication suddenly can cause breakthrough vaginal hemorrhage, leading to excessive blood loss and anemia.
