@Kirsty no I’m not breastfeeding. I just bleed nearly every 2 weeks it’s not painful but it’s just getting annoying now. I’m on the mini pill
I’m having the exact same! I’m having period every 2 weeks and beeen on the pill since o was about 4weeks postpartum, apparently just our body’s trying to adjust to it again
@Char that’s what I was thinking. I was on the pill for 4 years before I came off it so I was thinking that’s why I’m bleeding. I did kinda expect to bleed once a month but not every 2 weeks
@Katie yeah I was on the pill for about 9/10 years before and mines doing the exact same, I’m on the 3rd month on my pill, just waiting for it to come back again
@Katie you could ask them to try the other one, Rigevidon is the one I take. I switched back and it's been absolutely fine ever since.
I’m on a POP and pre pregnancy I had zero periods on it. After, I had one every month practically. My GP said by now (18mths) my body should have gotten used to it so I’m on 2 pills a day as a trial.
@Kirsty I did ask to go onto the one I was on before but she said they didn’t have that one like the exact same name but the one I’m on is basically the same apparently. But I did used to buy them online so might have to do that again
I had issues with the mini pill before I got pregnant now i have the depo injection and I haven’t bled once since having baby.
Are you breast feeding? The nurse gave me the mini pill as I couldn't combi feed on the pill I'd been on previously. The mini pill made me spot constantly throughout the month which was annoying. There's definitely a difference between those two
