Suggest Treatment For Breakthrough Bleeding After Taking Qlaira
Question: Hello, I have been on qlaira Combination pill for the past 25 days and I have been experiencing breakthrough bleeding (moderate to heavy) for the past 20 days. I want to switch to micronor which I was taking before switching to Qlaira without any side effects. When can I switch?
Brief Answer:
Can shift instantly
Detailed Answer:
Hello mam, thanks for trusting health care magic.
I understand your anxiety related to the issue.
Yes you can leave qlaira right now itself and shift to micronor instantly without any problem and will be very beneficial in relief from this bleeding as higher estrogen content of micronor will stop the bleed in a couple of days.
All the best
Regards
Dr Manisha

Hello,
Thank you for your speedy response.
Micronor doesn't have any estrogen as it is the XXXXXXX pill, progesterone only. I know that I can't switch at any time as it would have been the case if i was switching from XXXXXXX pill to combination, now i want to switch from combination (qlaira) to micronor (mini pill). When is the ideal time to switch? after i take all active pills? after i take all active and inactive? is the bleeding likely to continue even after i switch to XXXXXXX pill?
I ve been on the XXXXXXX pill for 3 months before switching to qlaira this month and i didn't have any problems.
please can you review my question again?

Brief Answer:
Switch instantly while on active pills
Detailed Answer:
Yes dear Im sorry as I wrote estrogen instead of progesterone in a hurried response.
You can switch to micronor instantly now itself while on active pills of qlaira.
It won't be much helpful in case you start inactive pills as that way you will be subjected to withdrawal bleeding and thus increased bleeding can occur instead.
Start polynor and stop qlaira now itself you will get instant relief of bleeding due to higher progesterone content of polynor.

Tomorrow I am getting the prescription for micronor and tomorrow is the last day of the active pills so I will skip tomorrow's active pill and take micronor instead correct? Sorry for asking so many questions, I want to make sure I don't make any mistakes.
