Hello, during my last visit to the gynecologist, she told me to stop taking the pill (alesse) to see how my body would react. I can tell you that he did not appreciate !! Not necessary to explain my variations to you (30 days without anything, then 16 days menstruate more or less, then 12 days without anything and it starts again ...). I leave for my vacation in Europe for 16 days and I have a big professional event then, I do not want to worry about whether I will be menstruated and for how long I will be ... Is there a drawback to what I start my pill for 2-3 months?

In order to adequately answer your question, I would need to know why the gynecologist wanted you to stop taking your pill? I understand. Thank you for these details. In this case, I recommend that you contact your pharmacist and your gynecologist to let them know that you would like to resume taking the pill. You are probably still in perimenopause and if the bleeding is bothering you to this extent, resuming the pill for a few months will probably bring more benefits than drawbacks.
