i started using microgynon 30 (combined
pill, 21 day thingy) a couple of weeks ago
on the day I thought my period started.
However, after a little bit of blood...
Nothing. I'm thinking now that this was
possibly because I had been to the doc's
for a cervical smear test very recently.
Anyway, end result being it's now almost 2
weeks later and no period (only some
cramps) - my normal cycle is anything up
to 2 weeks late usually. I'm not sure
what to do... I definitely haven't been
risking otherwise-unprotected sex. Am I
protected now? Should I run 2 packets of
pills together, or take the week break as
if everything is normal?

Just take the week break as normal. Your
body will adjust. No big deal, just use
backup to be safe.

Thanks, i'm just a bit concerned about
having a period outside of the intended
7-day break, then taking the break. I
know you're meant to be protected during
that time, but still...

It will be alright. If anything your
"period" will just be some spotting, but
your body will even back out by next
month. Just use a backup method for a
while to be safe.
