I am taking Loette Tablet for ovarian cysts. I started the 21-day pack on day 4 of my period, but I missed 2 tablets after 5 days. Now I am having bleeding again. Should I continue the remaining tablets in this cycle, or stop and restart on day 5 of my next period?

You should continue taking the remaining tablets in your current pack as scheduled, as stopping midway may further disturb your hormone balance and worsen cycle irregularity. The bleeding you are experiencing is likely breakthrough bleeding due to missed doses. However, your contraceptive protection may be reduced, so you should use an additional barrier method like condoms for the next 7 days. If you had unprotected intercourse after missing the tablets, consider taking a pregnancy test or consulting your doctor for further guidance.

It is important to restart your Loette 21 cycle properly after missing pills and spotting to ensure effectiveness.

🩺 What You Should Do Now

  • Since you missed 2 days of Loette after taking it for 5 days, and now have bleeding again, you should stop the current pack.
  • Wait for your next menstrual period to start naturally.
  • Then, begin a new Loette 21-day cycle from the first day of the new period rather than continuing the unfinished cycle.

⚠️ Why This Matters

Missing pills and bleeding while on Loette can reduce its effectiveness and cause breakthrough bleeding. Restarting with a new cycle at your next period helps reset the hormone levels properly.

🩺 Follow-up Advice

Consult your gynecologist for confirmation and guidance on managing ovarian cysts and any adjustments needed in your contraceptive use. They can provide personalized advice and monitor your condition safely.
