Visanne - Symptoms After Stopping Visanne?

A MyEndometriosisTeam Member asked a question 💭

Hi all,

I've been taking Visanne for a year now and doctor has said I can stop it. How long did it take for your period to return after stopping it? And have you experienced any other symptoms? I've been off it for 2 weeks now. No period yet, but I've had breast sensitivity, increased appetite and increased libido. I would love to hear your experiences!

Hi everyone♥️ ,

I eventually got my period about 6 or 7months after posting this and it had been irregular ever since. I even stopped monitoring because it was SO messed up after the visanne. I don’t know how it was all possible as I am certain that most of the menstrual blood was from anovulatory cycles but somehow I fell pregnant and I’m expecting my very first baby right now. I’m very very grateful to God 🤧 for making it all possible and I pray everything goes well as I am far along in my pregnancy. 🙏🏼

I wish you all the best and stay strong my ladies 🥺 , we go through so much and none of the pain we go through can be justified by people who have not experienced what we experience. Keep well & healthy and lots of love to you all 😘

Hi :) , did you eventually get your period?

I got off Visanne about a month ago and my period came back immediately a day later and lasted for 3 days.. exactly a month later , my period hasn't returned, I'm now about 13 days late and I'm a bit confused .. is this normal?
