Bleeding on the mini pill?

[megs]

I also had some light bleeding when I first started on the mini pill. I found it settled after about a month.

I had bleeding on the mini pill that kept increasing (coming more often and bleeding for more days) until i was bleeding more days than i was not. AF had started before i started minipill, i was expecting AF to continue but not to increase.

It seems it is quite a common effect of the minipill.

From googling, and searching here, some people found a different brand suited them better. Others had to change to an alternative form of contraception.

I also became pregnant while taking the minipill appropriately. I still haven't been able to find out whether the excess bleeding reduced the efficiency of it, or whether i was just lucky.

Is there a reason you began minipill so soon after baby, while exclusively breastfeeding? Have you heard of the LAM method of contraception https://www.breastfeeding.asn.au/bfi...-contraception, although i'm not sure if you would qualify now that you have had bleeding, even if it is artificially induced.

I have no idea what i am going to use after this bub.
