Started taking Lucette 12 days ago - still bleeding…

I’ve taken the pill before and I know the bleeding lasted a little longer than usual, think it’s break through bleeding? But this is going on 12 days now and doesn’t look like it’ll stop anytime soon.
Its not heavy, but enough that I need to change a panty liner more than once a day.

Anyone else had this? Hoping my body will sort itself out soon!

Ive been through this and take a similar mini pill started it 7 months ago and i had regular bleeding on it throughout the months it has settled now but it took about 6 months or so. Some people just bleed some stop and some people have spotting I think it’s normal and called breakthrough bleeding. I would maybe wait a little longer and see if it settles and if not it if it bothers you maybe look at another option

thank you, I actually got in touch with the doctor today and had a call, they told me it’s normal and I should wait a while longer until it becomes 4 weeks of bleeding and then it’ll be classed as abnormal.

If it’s a mini pill this could go on for 6 months at least unfortunately

It’s a combined. I keep reading up on it and sounds like it could be easily 3 months before it settles which feels like forver. I’m also feeling quite low.

I want to persist so I don’t have to deal with the ups and downs of not being on the pill, but still it’s making me want to come off!
