Is Abruptly Stopping Cerazette Intake Safe?
I was given cerazette by the nurse yesterday and have taken two pills from the pack so far, on reading the reviews I am reluctant to be on this pill, I don t want irregular periods and don t even want to stick it out and see how this pill goes, I m not going to put something in my body that I don t want! Is it okay to stop this pill mid-cycle?

Hi,
Although you can stop taking birth control pills at any time, even in the middle of the pill pack but doing so could throw your cycle off and cause bleeding to start. It is called as withdrawal bleeding and your cycles will become irregular.
Take care. Hope I have answered your question. Let me know if I can assist you further.
