Good morning
I've been taking Drvelis for over a year now. My periods have actually become less heavy and don't last 7 days, but my last period was very stingy and lasted three days. I began to wonder if I was pregnant. I took a pregnancy test and it came out negative, but I wonder if it's too early for a test... I plan to do repeat it next week.
Alternatively, visit your gynaecologist to be sure. Should I continue taking drovelis then? Do you discontinue it?

If you have been using Drovelis as prescribed, you have not missed a tablet, you are not taking medication that reduces the effectiveness of contraception (https://www.gdziepolek.pl/artykuly/jakie-leki-oslabiaja-skutecznosc-antykoncepcji) and you have not experienced vomiting or diarrhoea for up to 4 hours after taking the pills, the effectiveness of contraception is preserved.
"A small number of women taking Drovelis (about 6-8%) may not experience withdrawal bleeding while taking placebo tablets. In the absence of withdrawal bleeding, the likelihood of pregnancy is low if Drovelis is taken as prescribed."
As you can see while taking Drovelis tablets, withdrawal bleeding may not occur in some women and does not mean pregnancy.
Correct use of the preparation and a negative pregnancy test result indicate that you have not been fertilized and can continue to take Drovelis tablets. However, if you are still concerned that conception may have occurred, discuss the continued use of Drovelis and confirm that you are not pregnant with your gynaecologist.
