When I'm on the pill (one a day) I bleed on and off all the time. When I'm not on the pill I have regular periods but they are so heavy I flood. When I take two a day (which the Doctor recommended) I don't bleed at all.

Ideally I want to take one a day but I'm so fed up with bleeding all the time although its light its just so annoying and I feel permanently tired, boobs are sore and back aches.

I know if I go back on to two a day I'll be absolutely fine but I'm not keen on taking more than I should even tho the Docs say its ok.

Anyone else have problems with this pill? I've been on it since DD2 was born, which is over 5yrs now.

I had spotting on cerazette - no bleeding at all with Mirena (has the same hormone in) - so you could try that, or Depo, or one of the combined pills?
