Taking Microgynon. Cycle Has Become Lighter. Pregnancy Test Negative. Suggest?
Hello, I am a 20 year old woman who has been taking Microgynon 30 for four years. Only recently, in approximately six cycles, have I noticed my menstrual cycle changing. They have become considerably lighter and now the blood is brown as opposed to the typical red that I was used to. I know the pill can help reduce menstrual flow, but this has taken almost four years to do so. I have recently done a pregnancy test which was negative. I neither smoke nor drink.

hi.. thanks for using HCM.. you have been put on hormones (progesterone) for regularising the periods.. now you have reduced bleeding which is brown in colour, this is due to the progesterone.. all the very best..
