Hi..
Welcome to HCM..
thanks for writing to us..
when you are on birth control pills the bleeding will be light as there is no ovulation..and this continues for a while when you stop taking the pills till the ovulation is back..
you don't have to worry about that..
Duphaston is a synthetic progesterone and it causes heavy bleeding after stopping.. that is a withdrawl bleeding..
you don't have to take it again for the next cycle ..
wait for 2-3 cycles.. if they are irregular then go for a consultation and take necessary treatment..
Hope this information helps you..
take care..
