Yes,it is normal.

Hello dear,
Thanks for trusting hcm about your health care.
I have gone through your history and understand your concerns.
Regesteron is progesterone hormone and it may cause heavy bleading but it is not always occur.
If you had less bleeding than there is no need to worry and it may occur due to hormonal imbalance.( progesterone cause withdrawal bleeding in estrogen primed epithelium).
