A member asked:

I came off yasmin (drospirenone and ethinyl estradiol) 3 weeks ago after been on the contraceptive pill for 16 years.ive yet to have a bleed.is this normal? also i'm very lethargic ...

?: If you didn't have a withdrawal bleed when you stopped the yasmin, (drospirenone and ethinyl estradiol) i would do a pregnancy test to rule out pregnancy. If you did have the withdrawal bleed, then we wouldn't expect another period for 5-6 weeks, since women stopping the pill typically have their next period arrive 1-2 weeks late.
