I'm on my first pack of microgestin FE 1/20 and I've been bleeding for 2 weeks. Do you have any idea when you think it will stop?

Hello, Kika91! How are you?

It may last for about 3 months, until your body adjusts to the hormones in this oral contraceptive. If the bleeding becomes very heavy, or persists past that time period, you should consult your doctor as it may not be the right OC for you to take.

The FDA lists the other typical side effects as possibly including nausea, dizziness, headache, irritability and PMS-like symptoms.

Is there anything else I can help with?
