No bleed?
« on: July 24, 2016, 09:35:53 PM »

Hi all
I've started Elleste Duet 1mg and it says I will start a bleed sometime between day 5 and day 21. I'm at the end of day 23 with no sign of one. Is this unusual?

Thanks

Hi Errol - I've had a look at the patient information leaflet online and it says  "You will probably have a monthly bleed. This may start any time between day 21 of the pack to day 5 of the next pack. This pattern will usually be the same from month to month. Some women may have no bleeds.
In the first few months you may get irregular bleeding. However, if this carries on you should tell your doctor."  so as you are only on day 23 there are still plenty of days left for your bleed to start. It's between day 21 and day 5 of the next pack not the other way around. An easy mistake to make. Hope this reassures you.

There's lots to read in these leaflets so it's easy to get confused.
