Title: Bleeding on qlaira
Post by: Sandra 78 on October 23, 2023, 12:30:50 PM

Hi All,
I've been taking the qlaira contraceptive pill for 4 months now  for peri menopause( anxiety , crying and something.ive never experienced before, suicidal ideation). It's terrifying, I have no desire to do anything, it's such a scary feeling. Bleeding on day 26 is when it should.happen but i always bleed around 2 weeks after starting a new pack. It doesn't seem normal? Any advice please

Hi!  what R U taking for the depression and suicidal thoughts?  been there, it's scary!

Is there any info in the leaflet in the box?  Hopefully someone will be along with advice, perhaps it's simply the regime kicking your hormones.

How awful! It might be that there is something in the ingredients that doesn't agree with you.
I'm on a different minipill, so far no side effects but suicidal thoughts is listed as a side effect. My sister experienced this yet me and my cousin are ok on the same pill. It's worth discussing with your GP and maybe trying a different brand.
