Anyone else? Had last mini pill desogestral last weekend! Not having too many withdrawal symptoms so far, tiny tiny cramps ever now and then. I’m surprised I’ve not had any bleeding yet as the odd time I’ve missed one I’ve had spotting the next day… Been on it a long time ( 6/7 years) so impatient to see how quick I will get back to regular cycles!

Going to start tracking bbt, Not sure when I will start using lh strips as 1: I hate doing them …. And 2: it will just start off the poas addiction 😅

Hi op, I was on desogestral for 12 years. I had no bleeding or spotting, but got my first period 6 weeks later. My cycle wasn’t instantly in a regular routine which is understandable after being on it so long. 6wks after that I hadn’t yet had my next period, but then found out I was pregnant!

I’m going by to use this thread as a diary I think; it may interest someone anyway one day! I hate reading old threads with no conclusions 😅
The mood swings have started now… I already hate this and I’ve only had 2 random crying episodes last night and this morning. Still no bleeding or proper cramps.

Properly come on today so that’s pretty much been bang on a month since I stopped taking it; took last one exactly 28 days ago! Hopefully normal cycles from here on in 🤞🏻
