I have bleeding even though I am on the contraceptive pill?

Question

I take the pill (Mirvala) continuously and I stop after 2 packs to fall in my week (my body can't stand more than 2 continuous packs). I am normally very regular. It's now been 4 days since I started my new blister pack and I still have very red bleeding (not as heavy though). This never happens to me usually. Usually my bleeding stops after the 2nd or 3rd day of my new pack. Should I be worried? Thank you After how long do you think I should be concerned? So far, there is no real improvement and it will be a week tomorrow since I started my new pack. Although it's not heavy, it's just enough to make it unpleasant. Earlier this week, I was told that the first dose of the Covid vaccine (I had my dose on May 31) could potentially throw off my menstrual cycle I just hope it's not Mirvala that is made "not strong enough" for my body. My gynecologist is very complicated to contact and there is always a months-long wait to see him and I just hope I don't have to go through that long

Hello ma'am, thank you for your question! This is not abnormal, even for the most regular people! Although unpleasant, the situation often gets better on its own. You should notice an improvement every day I am available if you have any further questions! Tom Samaha, pharmacist The situation is resolved fairly quickly, usually 1 to 3 weeks, but in some cases it may take longer. I would say that we will consider a change after 2 months if the situation does not resolve to your satisfaction. Your pharmacist could then try to contact your gynecologist or your family doctor if you have one. Sincerely Tom Samaha, pharmacist
