Constant bleeding on progesterone only pill

I’ve been taking the progesterone only pill for almost 4 weeks and I have been bleeding for the whole time, is this normal and will it stop?
the bleeding isn’t heavy but it’s really beginning to annoy me now! I’m on the waiting list for the implant but not holding out much hope with my useless drs surgery…

It made me bleed the whole time I was on it.
I was under gynae and they insisted I try it for 6 months. After 5 months I was so anaemic I could barely move.
I was the same with the coil.
I’d not want to try an implant in case that did the same tbh. If there is a wait to get it put in, imagine how long it will take for an appointment to get it removed! It was a battle to get my coil removed & took nearly a year.
