Hi all.
I'd been feeling rather grateful that the peri-menopausal time had passed me by smoothly. I'd been bleed-free on the modern mini-pill Cerazette for over 8 years, had a break nearly 2 ago for a hormone check which showed I had rising menopause hormones. I went back on the pill for a year.
I had another break to check levels again and was given the all clear that I no longer needed contraception. Weirdly coming off the pill that time gave me all sorts of symptoms - heaviness, sore boobs - that I'd not had for a very long time.
I've been fine off the pill - pleasantly surprised that I had the opposite of vaginal dryness.
After 8 months I've just had a bleed - normal heavy period type.
Any ideas what I should do?
Do I need to use contraception again?
Thank you for being there over a bank holiday weekend !!
Anna
