Help I’m desperate. I’m an over thinker and always go to worst case sensation first. Has anyone else experienced similar?

after the birth of my lg in August I was started on Desogestrel. (Pre pregnancy on cerazette with no issues). After 5 months I started bleeding, nothing previously. The bleeding may be for 12 hours then stop for 24, then start for 6 hours then stop for 12, and can go for days before it starts again It’s so random, I can’t foresee when or if it will start. This has been going on now for 6 weeks. I feel like I can’t leave the house. is this normal?
I’ve read some people get spotting but has it been stop start for others and for so long?

my mind is jumping straight to something seriously wrong and I can’t function for the thoughts in my head.

Not every contraceptive will suit every woman. I once had a progesterone only pill that made me bleed heavily non stop for 5 months- don’t ask why I put up with it so long! I was so anaemic by the end.
Book a contraceptive review with your practice nurse and discuss swapping to an alternative.
