When will menstruation occur after discontinuation of contraceptive pills? Can I return to hormonal contraception after a month's break? Can I use hormonal contraception to change the bleeding date?

Both at the start and end of contraceptive drugs, there may be irregular spotting and bleeding associated with the so-called adaptation period. The time necessary for the return of the natural cycle is determined individually and depends m.in on its previous regularity. A similar situation is described in the opinion: https://www.gdziepolek.pl/opinie-i-pytania/26097/czy-po-miesiecznej-przerwie-od-tabletek-antykoncepcyjnych-moge-je-z-powrotem-brac You can return to the use of hormonal contraception after any time. When you start using hormonal contraception on the 1st day of the new cycle, you will be protected against pregnancy from the 1st tablet. The use of a contraceptive preparation in the middle of the cycle will neither provide you with contraceptive protection nor will it probably affect the time of onset of menstruation. However, it can cause spotting and bleeding for a long time. If you want to delay the onset of menstruation, I encourage you to consult a gynecologist.
