Period symptoms on the pills?

Hi, I've been taking Cerazette over 6 months so far and my period is completely stopped. But I sometimes feel like I'm on my period as my weight slightly gains & my mood changes a lot- it seems to happen on a monthly basis and goes away in a few days. I'm not sure whether this is because of my period or irrelevant? Is anyone has the same experience?

Thanks :)

These pre - menstrual symptoms can happen and be normal on the POP.

Dear NuttyCoffee,

Your symptoms are quite common and affect about 10% of women taking Cerazette. Weight gain could be from increased appetite. Check the patient information leaflet inside the pack.
