Hi Moni,

Thanks for your query.

Firstly, it is common for the periods to be irregular for 1-2 cycles after stopping the pills.

A pregnancy test will end your suspense regarding pregnancy.

If you are not interested in getting pregnant in near future, you may switch over to any other contraceptive pill, as almost all brands have the same contents of hormones. Insistence on using microgynon (which, if not easily accessible) may land you up being pregnant!

Consult a Gynecologist at the earliest, who will prescribe a suitable substitute to microgynon.

If you find my response helpful and informative, do not forget an “excellent” (5-star rating) to my answer, to ENCOURAGE all doctors- engaged in social service- to render sound advice to the FREE queries.

Fond regards and have a nice day
