Done Surgery For Ovarian Cyst. Prescribed Meprate. Have Bleeding. Should I Stop Meprate?

Last year I had a surgery for a cyst in my left ovary . After that my periods were regular. In the month of May I had my periods twice in a month. My doctor suggested taking meprate which I had been taking till date. This time I have been taking Meprate , however I started having very slight bleeding inspite of taking meprate continuously. Should I stop Meprate?

Hi,
Thanks for the query.
You might be having break through bleeding while being on hormonal pills.
You continue taking the pills, the spotting will subside soon.
If the spotting persists or increases better to consult gynecologist once and with her advice increase the dose of the meprate which can prevent the spotting or you can switch over some other from of contraception.
Take care.
