Rigevidon - bleeding while on it?
okay, I have been on the pill one full cycle now. I had been bleeding for 2 weeks, then into the "pill free break" you are meant to have, so that was another week. So, 3 weeks in total bleeding. It stopped two days ago. I am meant to start the pill again tomorrow, but tonight I started bleeding again. What should I do? If I start the pill again, will this stop the bleed? Do you think it will be gone by the morning?
rigevidon is the pill.

Carry on with it. I've been taking Microgynon 30 for 4 weeks now, and I bled for the whole of the first pack (including the pill-free week) apart from one day, and it's only stopped in the last couple of days. It'll be your body getting used to the hormones - carry on taking it and if it carries on a week or so into the next pack, see a doctor - it might not be the right pill for you.
Keep taking it as you're supposed to. It'll take a good few weeks for your body to get used to it - everyone adjusts to it differently so don't worry. It took me about a month and a bit to fully adjust, and during this period I bled intermittently...annoying at the time, but once used to it I've had no trouble at all.
If after a few cycles you're still getting the bleeding, then perhaps go back to your GP/Sexual health clinic and they may suggest a different pill that may be better suited - but this is unlikely, I'm sure you'll find the bleeding will stop pretty soon.

I've recently had exactly the same thing, although I have been on Rigevidon for a full 3 month cycle, and during the middle of my 2nd 3 months, i started a continuous bleed, almost as light as spotting, but enough to get worried about. I should add i've been on Microgynon since i was 16 and never had a single problem with that!
I went to the doctors today and they told me just to be safe I should do a pregnancy test, have the 'neck' of my cervix checked and to have an STI check done.
(All precautionary of course)
I've looked on forums like this (as you do when you find something that is wrong with you) and i've spoken to my mum about it. She said it might have something to do with a 'tilted womb' which doesn't effect fertility most of the time, but that can have some adverse affects.
Many people have also said that a simple change of contraception, even if it's moving to another pill, can change/stop the bleeding. I'm hoping that Rigevidon just isn't the right pill for me and that everything checks out ok. It might just be the same for you

Iv been taking the rivegdon pill for nearly 2 weeks and Iv been bleeding for 9 days, when will I stop bleeding?
Your body just hasn't settled into the cycle yet, you'll stop soon just carry on with the pills. 2 weeks isn't that long, it takes a couple of months for your body to really get into the swing of it. Don't worry about excess bleeding or spotting atm, give it a couple of months and if it's still affecting your bleeding strangely then go and see a nurse.
When I was on Ridgevidon I ended up after a few months just having a little bleed for a couple of days 5 days after I'd stopped my sheet of pills and then it'd stop about 3 days into my next set. You'll be fine
Day 7 of starting my first pack of Ridgevidon through my period... period ended on Friday and boom... Fresh bright red blood today ... had a massive panic, didn't think any bodily adjustment would kick in so immediately?
I would recommend an STI check.
A friend of mine had recently started a new contraceptive pill, following a break from hormonal contraception. She used to take this same pill (but different brand) for years, then tried a mini-pill, then had a few months out. Started it on day 1 of her cycle, and first month no problems. She then experienced really erratic bleeding and really bad period pains to the point where she was physically sick, having never really suffered with pains before.
It turned out her new partner had given her chlamydia and she'd got pelvic inflammatory disease - which can cause fertility problems if left untreated. Luckily she caught it quick and is fine, but chances are with your body if something doesn't feel right it isn't. It's always worth getting stuff like this checked out! I know I would now after what she went through!

If this is your first pack of pills then its likely you'll get some breakthough bleeding. When I started I had a period right in the middle of my cycle which was not fun. Also, I noticed you said you took the pill for 2 weeks and then had your 1 week break? I'm not sure if I am misreading your post, but I usually take my pill (I'm on the same as you) for 3 weeks and then have a break.
Hi,
I started taking Ridgevidon the same day as having the Mirena removed, it has been 9 days and I'm still bleeding (bright red blood), constantly sore breast and feeling sick...... I'm starting to panic now and not sure if I should just stop...... Help me please?

I'm on the rigevidon pill do I take it all the time or have a 7 day break? I get confused I have been taking it for a week then having a week off but every time I have a week off I come back on my period and I don't know if that is meant too happen does it happen to anyone else??
I'm having a different response to everyone one else. I'm taking rigevidon and am on day 3 of my week free pill and have had no bleeding at all. I expected it to start after 1 day of not taking but am getting concerned now. Does anyone know if this is normal or so I seek a doctors advice???

Hi. I am currently experiencing what you have described. What did you do in the end?
I've been taking rigevidon for 2 weeks now, I had my normal period, and now i've just been spotting every day since (which is annoying) and its literally just me adjusting, I have another week of pills then my week free, which then i'm supposed to have my 'fake' period? Was never told this by the doctor
This happened to me I was constantly bleeding for about 2-3 months when I first started this pill and got super worried, I went to the doctors and they said it's normal because you're putting more hormones into your body so it needs to balance and sort itself out but they said it's extremely rare but it could also be due to pregnancy, cervical cancer, sti's or std's. It's extremely rare for it to be them. About 2 weeks after going to the doctors the bleeding stopped and I was normal. I'd go to the doctor but if you give it a few more weeks it should sort itself out
I've had something similar.. I finished my first pack of Rigevidon yesterday and so I've stopped taking them for the week as you are supposed too and I'm still bleeding and have been all the way through the first pack, is that normal? When do people usually stop bleeding and go back to normal? (I should also mention that I started my first pack of the pill on the first day of my period last month)
