A member asked:

Bleeding straight after period (16th november until now) after starting microgynon 30 ed. is it normal or should i be worried?

A doctor has provided 1 answer

Normal: Lower dose bcp started after a period may not have enough estrogen to stop the period completely, and it can just "drag along" for a time, even up to a month- if it goes beyond the first package call the doc and ask if you should get another med to help it stop.
