Regardless of the type of <strong>pill<\/strong> (monophasic, biphasic or triphasic), the <strong>extended regimen<\/strong> can more easily cause occurrences of <strong>spotting<\/strong> (the minor bleeding that Federica mentioned), particularly in the first few months of treatment when the body has to adapt to the new regimen. Not all women want to deal with this. To reduce the incidence of this unexpected spotting, all you have to do is stop taking the pill for 4-5 days to voluntarily cause a <strong>pseudo-menstrual flow.<\/strong> After the break, you can start taking the pill with the same regimen (even if the flow is not completely finished). <strong>Spotting<\/strong> does not in any way suggest a reduced effectiveness of the pill, unless the woman has forgotten to take one or more doses, and is not a contraindication to following the <strong>extended regimen.<\/strong> In any case, in regards to all these aspects, it is best to discuss things verbally with your gynecologist to assess risks and benefits together, taking into account sensitivity, lifestyle, culture, religion and any factors that can affect the choice of one method compared to another. <\/span><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p><span>&#8230;.it caused me to spot, especially in the beginning.<\/span><\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":1,"featured_media":0,"comment_status":"closed","ping_status":"closed","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"_acf_changed":false,"footnotes":""},"categories":[513,519],"tags":[],"class_list":["post-13816","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","hentry","category-contraception","category-the-combined-pill-with-estrogen"],"acf":[],"yoast_head":"<!-- This site is optimized with the Yoast SEO plugin v22.8 -
