I use a topical oestrogen cream intermittently (sometimes even erratically!) but I don't have bleeding - had it only once, right at the beginning of the problem. My surgeon sat me down and explained how the medication works, and very specifically how it affected my changing oestregen levels (I was about 74 at the time), which may make a difference from person to person. I initially wanted nothing to do with oestrogen, felt it was very contra-indicated but his careful explanation made me feel much more at ease. Best wishes.
