Is A Break Required If Bleeding When Taking Levest Pill?

I started the levest pill 2 weeks ago, I started "breakthrough bleeding" a couple days ago. Should I have a 7 day break now? I continued to take it up until today (so have been taking it whilst bleeding) what should I do? I am going to a festival on friday and do NOT want to be on :( please help!

Hi,

Don't stop pills as you will have withdrawal bleeding if you stop the pills. Rather, take tablet Tranexa to stop the bleeding if it is heavy.

Take care. Hope I have answered your question. Let me know if I can assist you further.

Regards,
Dr. Shrikrushna Chavan, OB & GYN Specialist
