For a year I took MyWy tablets. However, I have very heavy bleeding with them. Now the doctor proposes mercilon. Is there a chance that the problem will disappear and can I safely end you and immediately start mercilon . Do I not have to use additional security?

The active substances contained in both preparations are different. Patients' tolerance to a given type of hormone is determined individually and in one case there may be a decrease in the intensity of bleeding and in another case it may not. If you do not get satisfactory results from using Mercilon, I encourage you to consult your doctor again.
Is there a chance that the withdrawal bleeding will be less? In the composition of mercilon is 0.15 mg of dezegestrel notomiast in tablets we are az 3 mg of drospirenone. That's a big difference. I am very afraid that the withdrawal bleeding will not be even stronger. In research, everything is ok. I am 43 years old.

You can change the preparation in the manner described in the Mercilon leaflet. In order to maintain full contraceptive protection, it is recommended to use the 1st active tablet of Mercilon immediately after the end of the use of active (pink) tablets of Mywy. It is also possible to use Mercilon after stopping the placebo tablets of Mywy. Both methods of treatment ensure the continuity of contraceptive protection and there is no need for an additional contraceptive method: https://www.gdziepolek.pl/produkty/48367/mercilon-tabletki/ulotka/39692 We wrote about how to use contraception correctly in the article: https://www.gdziepolek.pl/artykuly/jak-prawidlowo-stosowac-antykoncepcje
