Title: Zoely pill and period advice
Post by: Vicky81 on June 11, 2022, 09:29:16 AM

Hi all
So I started zoely 12 days ago now.
Prior to this I was on everol patches.

I am due on tomorrow and have been getting all the signs- lower back pain, womb ache,, fatigue.
The question is if I do come on tomorrow or a few days later does this mean the zoely isn't working for me?
You are meant to get the bleed when you get to the end of packet to take 4 dummy pills.
Just to add - I had a scan on Monday and dr said my womb needs to shed as its 8mm thick. She said by the looks of it you're due a period/bleed
Thanks all xxx

No, it doesn't mean it isn't working. It can take some months for your body to adjust to new hormones so just ignore what happens with bleeding (unless incredibly heavy) until you're a few months in...
