General & Family Physician 's  Response
Hi,

As a physician, I would like to tell you that Ovral-L is a contraceptive pill. Usually, withdrawal bleeding occurs during last 7 placebo pills in the Pack. Mind it that it is not a natural menstruation but a Withdrawal bleeding. Thus, I would like to tell you that quantity and duration of withdrawal bleeding depends and varies from person to person.

Thus, I would suggest that you should not worry about a thing and you should keep taking your pills without missing any of them regularly.

Hope this will help you. Feel free to ask any further question. Have a nice day.

Regards,
Dr. Abhijeet
