hiya, I have had 2 yrs of no periods, and have been fortunate enough to be one of the lucky ones inthis respect.

But over the last few months or 3 cycles, i have had a 2 periods. I am not sure if they have been on time, but i had one in july and one which is fairly light and is still here after 9 days.

I have had a good look online and on other threads, and i do feel that what I am havingnow is prob more the norma on this pill rather than no periods at all.

I like not having periods lol, as an old SPD sufferer it has helped me alot not having the hormone surge, and hence spd twinges. Yet i am feeling pretty fed up of the not knowing whe iam going to bleed.

anyone care to have a moan about it, or give me any advice. TIA

Have you been on Cerazette without any bleeding at all for 2 years? If you are now bleeding irregularly it could need investigating.

Have you forgotten any pills, or been late with them? That can cause irregular bleeding.

Any bleeding after sex?

hiya, yes i was really good on it, no probs.

I did stop taking it in say april, then went back on it in June, after a really bad period. Sorry that might be very sgnificant.

I just expected, as soon as i went back on that it would be the same Blush

the bleeding, now i have looked properly at my dates do coincide with what would have been period times. I don't soak a tampon, it's always old blood and a tiny bit of new on each one. Like a leak, lol, which i know it is. iyswim.!!

Ah I would say that the break you had has triggered the bleeding. With a POP it can take a few months for everything to settle down again.

You may find that the 'periods' get lighter and lighter and then stop.

ok, i will persevere then. when you go looking around online you see so many that have given up, with good reason too!

I was always one of the lucky ones as i say.

thankyou for your advice.

If it suits you in all other ways I would give it a couple more months and see how the bleeding goes.
