What Causes Stringy And Sticky Menstruation After Discontinuing Cerazette?

I ve just changed from Cerazette (been on 6 years) to Cerelle - due to the cost GP s are recommending Cerelle now due to them being the same but a different brand . I m 1 month in and just finished my first packet but for the past 10 days have had heavy bleeding including stringy/sticky discharge like clots which I never had on Cerazette. On researching this, I came across people saying that these pills are NOT in fact the same? But also, I ve been referred to a sleep clinic due to being constantly tired no matter how much sleep I get.......... do you think there is even a chance this is due to the pill rather than something like sleep apnea please?

Hi, I have gone through your question and understand your concern. Cerelle and Cerazette are two different kinds of preparations. If you are not comfortable with newer pill go back to previous one.
