What Are The Effects Of Abruptly Stopping Novelon?

I took novelon for a month to regularize my period cycle. However, i am feeling a shortness of breath which is a side effect. My doctor asked me to stop using it. I want to know what are the effects of abruptly stopping novelon. I have had 3 pills so far this month.

Hello and welcome,

I understand your issue and it is best to stop if there are side effects.
The only issue that may arise after stopping it is you may have a period or spotting and the next cycle may be delayed or early.
In short some amount of irregular bleed may occur for a short duration. Nothing more than this. So do not worry. Stop it if there is breathlessness.

Hope this satisfies your query.
Thanks for using HCM.
