- Mine stopped the day before my 6 week check up, but then I continued to bleed off and on from the day after that check up to well over a year PP. In that time I had two ultrasounds checking for retained product, multiple courses of progesterone tablets and finally a gyno visit which came with a recommendation to either go off the pill or try a higher dosage form Elizabeth
