Brief Answer:
What was the pill number that was missed?

Detailed Answer:
Hi and thank you so much for this query.

I am so sorry to hear about this reported bleeding that you have reported. I will like to know what day of the cycle the pill missed corresponded to. Also, when were your periods next due?

Bleeding could be a side effect of the pill. I do not particularly think this missed oils is responsible for this bleeding, This could be more of the observed side effects when persons take this treatment.

For now, I will recommend that you treat this like menses by putting on pads. If the bleeding becomes too excessive or lasts for more than 7days, I will suggest that you get evaluated by your OBGYN to look for any other possible cause and treat if any.

I hope this helps. I wish you well. Thank you so much for using our services and do feel free to ask for more information and clarifications if need be.

Hi and thanks for the response.

This would most likely be an adverse effect of this pill. I will suggest that you continue to take the pills as advised. Any prolonged or excessive bleeding should prompt a doctor's consultation for review.

I hope this helps. I wish you well and would be happy addressing any further concerns should you have any.
