Patient's question:
Last night I took two doses of drospirenone and ethinyl estradiol tablets. This morning I noticed that my menstrual flow was reduced. Is it normal for the menstrual flow to be less after taking drospirenone and ethinyl estradiol tablets?Doctor's answer:
The ethinylestradiol norethisterone tablets are a type of short-acting contraceptive pill with relatively broad efficacy, such as being used for contraception, medication application, and menstrual regulation. Generally, after taking the medication, there may be a temporary decrease in menstrual flow, which is normal. After 3 to 6 months of menstrual regulation, the menstrual cycle will return to normal. If necessary, it is important to have a thorough examination to identify the cause of menstrual disorders, such as endocrine disorders or gynecological inflammation, adnexal cysts, etc. At the same time, traditional Chinese medicine can be used for regulation.
