Should I take a 4 day break if I’ve had breakthrough bleeding for over a week? It stopped for 2 days and then started again. I’m on microgynon 30. Do you also think I may need a stronger pill as I’m having breakthrough bleeding quite a bit now. I also do 9 weeks on the pill 4 days off, could it be this causing the problem? Thanks x

How long have you been doing the 9 weeks on 4 days off? And you could take a 4 day break and see if that would help but I can’t guarantee that will stop the bleeding

@monkeybutt63 I mostly do 6 weeks on 4 days off but known again I do 9 weeks on 4 days off so I do think it’s my body trying to adjust.

Skipping breaks can lead to side effects so it’s always a possibility you may breakthrough bleed
