Hello, I have been taking limetic pills for a very long time, I still do not have regular bleeding, now more than a week late, the test is obviously negative, but my question is this, should I take them as it is on the letter signed? E.g. that when it is ndz I take it from ndz ? And I return to the rest at the end ? Am I able to delay this menstruation and bleeding by taking the pills?
And I feel so full, my belly is full and there is still no bleeding

To @Aaaaaa:
I understand that not bleeding can be stressful, especially with regular use of birth control pills. Delaying the administration of the tablet by one hour should not significantly affect their effectiveness – it is important that the delays are not greater than 12 hours to ensure maximum protection.
As for naproxen, it does not affect the effectiveness of birth control pills or their effect. However, it can relieve menstrual pain, but on its own it should not cause changes in the regularity of the cycle.
And can pills with naproxen also have an effect on menstruation?
Well, I must admit that the lack of bleeding always stresses me out so much 😅, I take it regularly, only sometimes an hour later, the pills may have some less protection because of this?

The days of the week printed on the blister help to take the medication regularly and reduce the risk of mistakes, e.g. accidentally taking two tablets in one day. According to the manufacturer's recommendations, the blister should be started from the top row, taking the tablet marked with a specific day of the week. Subsequent tablets should be taken according to the day of the week and in the direction indicated by the arrows on the blister until the blister is empty. As you wrote, you then return to the "rest" of the pills from the first row at the end. However, each tablet in the blister has the same composition. If you take them in a different order, this does not affect the effect of the medicine.
Limetic is a single-component contraceptive pill. Irregular spotting and bleeding may occur when taking this medicine, unlike traditional combined tablets. Bleeding may occur with varying frequency and intensity, and in some patients bleeding may not occur at all. After a few months of taking the drug, bleeding usually occurs less frequently. The occurrence of bleeding or its absence is not associated with a decrease in the effect of the drug, of course, if it is taken regularly.
If you have doubts about the method of contraception you are using or if you find irregular bleeding bothersome, you should see your doctor, who will suggest a different, perhaps more convenient method of contraception. If necessary, you can use teleconsultations here:
