Hey OP. I was on Microgynon for a year and that forced me to have periods even though I was anorexic. They were heavy and crippling. My doc switched me to Cerazette and one of the side-effects is never having periods/irregular, light bleeding. In 4 years I have only bled once and that was literally too tiny to even notice. I would say most GPs will put you on Cerazette if you ask because you have a history of a medical condition or a medical condition. I was switched because I couldn't afford to lose any blood. My best friend has recently switched to Cerazette and, whereas she used to be unable to move due to cramps, we can even go dancing when she's on her period! x
