A member asked:
Started to take the mini pill as i'm breastfeeding. now my period has stopped. took test... not pregnant. is it normal?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Yes: Because the minipill contains only progesterone, it will not regulate the cycle - but it may suppress the cycle. Many women will not have bleeding or periods at all while taking the "mini pill". Other women will have irregular, unpredictable spotting or bleeding while taking that pill.
