Mini pills and periods

I'm on my second packed of the mini pill microlut, so I've been taking it for two months. I still haven't got my period. How long does this pill stop your period for? I've had spotting a couple of weeks ago but nothing since.

With any kind of oral contraceptive, it often takes a few cycles for placebo periods and withdrawal bleeds to sync up and to become regular. It can take longer, or things can be wonkier, if before you began a pill you did not have regularc cycles., which is common for younger people.

If you finish your third pack and still have not had any spotting nor a withdrawal bleed (the period one has on the pill), then you just want to ring up your prescribing physician to check in with them.

Also, as I understand it, you have recently been concerned you may be pregnant. Have you yet taken a test so you can get that sorted?

I had got spotting for weeks after I had asked for help on here. So I assumed that that was sort of my period but it was like spotting because of the pill, so I haven't worried about it. Should I be getting a test?

There is really no "should", only what would make you feel better. So, if you are worried about pregnancy, taking a test is something you can always do.

Alright thank you.
But does the spotting symbolise anything?

Spotting can happen without signifying anything
