What Causes Missed Period While On Cerezette Pills?
Hi! I am nearly 40 and have been taking cerezette pilot for about 8 months. At first it worked okay but for the last 3 months or so I have probably only had about 5 weeks of no bleeding and have put on about 15lbs. I have a physical job and eat well but the pounds just keep creepin up. Would I be a candidate for Yasmin?

Hello,
Cerezette pills usually won't cause weight gain. The problem is related to water retention (body holding water).
If that is a problem for you, I advise to consult with your doctor first in order to determine the right cause for this water retention. It might be related to any other issues like liver or kidney.
Yasmin could be an alternative, but discuss my suggestions with your doctor first.
All the best.
