What Causes Prolonged Menstrual Bleeding While On Diane 35?
Hello doctor. I m 20 , i started my periods on 3rd of this September on the expected date, it lasted normally for 8 days, after that it stopped for a day then continued again with very less blood and than after 3 days or more bleeding started to get more ,just like i normally have on my periods.. Basically its been almost 20 days that I m on my periods. I m not sexually active I ve been taking contraceptive pills Diane 35 , for 8 months which my dermatologist had recommended due to acne, it has never caused any problem On the 11th day of abnormal periods i stopped taking the medicone and I m not taking it since then

Hello,
This bleeding and spotting for 20 days are not normal and you need to get further evaluated.
You may need to do an ultrasound and hormone levels because it may be a hormone disbalance since you were previously been taking contraception pills.
Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.

Dr. Olgeta Xhufka, General & Family Physician
