Desogestrel

Anyone been on this pill? The nurse said I would most likely have one period and then they would probably stop. It’s been 3 months, I’ve had 4 ‘periods’ or ‘bleeds’ . First two were 7 days, third was 3 days and I’m now on day 10 of the latest period 🥴 I’ve contacted the doctors and I’ll hear back tomorrow, just wondering if anyone else had any experience with this pill?

Very normal for this pill (I’m a sexual health/contraception nurse), can take 3-6 months for bleeding to settle, and even then it may not settle into any sort of predictable pattern unfortunately.

I've got the same on this type of pill, very random periods

This is exactly what happened to me and I saw the doctor about it yesterday She’s put me on a different form cerezette which is apparently a more expensive version she said sometimes this can help settle the periods and to try them for 3 months and go from there

I'm on this pill and it was the same for me. I was on it before I fell pregnant and when I started on it I had a 'period' every month for 3 months then they stopped and I would bleed out of the blue only now and again. I'm back on it now after having my baby in April and I have bled 6 times, sometimes longer than others but it's just the hormones changes in your body. It should settle down though x
