Hi,
Please note that women on oral pills may have a period but these will be less in duration and quantity. Other symptoms mentioned are adverse effects of pills. Just decrease salt intake, you will benefit.
Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.
Regards,
Dr. Varinder Joshi, General & Family Physician
