A member asked:
What will happen if my she takes the microgynin pill mid cycle? will it affect anything? she normally has very painful & heavy periods regularly.
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Not Much: It won't be effective as a contraception until after her next period because as she started taking them mid cycle they won't have time to stop her from ovulating this month. There is also no guarantee it will stop her period for the same reason
