Cerazette

[Shan15]

Hello, I have been put on Cerazette and have been on it for about 2 months now and haven't had any periods! It sounds weird but I would rather have the period!i am still getting the pains but nothing else! Should I stop taking it to get them back and go to the doctor?

I was on that pill hated it. It stopped my periods too in fact when I stopped taking it my periods stopped and I would have a period every 3/4 months. After 2 years I was diagnosed with Endo

Thank you for getting back to me! It sounds like something I need to stop taking and get away from! I will have to ask the doctor to change it for me!

It is supposed to stop your periods - that's one of the reasons they give it to women with endo. I have been on it for 6 months and have had endless bleeding and my periods sadly haven't stopped. I wish they would :/

I still get the period pains but no period, I don't understand it! Haven't they? Surely they should have stopped by now!

I have been on it for 4 years (to stop my very heavy periods) and it has changed my life. It took about 6 months for things to settle down but eventually, for me at least, periods did stop (yay) and no pain. I get the odd very light breakthrough bleed once in a blue moon but it's in no way inconvenient. We're all different, but I do think you need to give these things a fair chance and it can take a while. My doctor was very honest and said this to me right at the start.
