Is early periods a side effect of taking Microlite?
Patient: Hi there, I have been on Microlite pill for nearly 2 years. Last month my period came one week early ( still had a week left to take it and I did) . Whilst this month it has arrived with 9 more pill days to take. Is this normal, do I need to change pill? Doctor: Hello,  When there is some hormonal imbalance then you may have early or delayed periods even if you are on Microlite.  Yes, you can get clinically assessed & examined by a gynae. Other medical conditions like thyroid issues, PCOS, anemia, cervical cyst, fibroid, polyps,  etc can be detected & treated at the earliest. You can change your BC pills if you so desire.   Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.  Take care  Regards, Dr Nupur K, General & Family Physician
