early period on ortho tri-cyclen lo
Posted: 06-09-08 23:45pm

I have been taking ortho tri-cyclen lo for over a year now, and I always have my period during the 4th week of my pills (placebo). Well, about 5 days ago I started my period and I was only on the 2nd week of my pills. I am not sexually active, the only reason I have the pills is because they regulate my period and this is the first time this has happened. But, I can't figure out why I started my period 2 weeks early instead of while I'm taking the placebo pills as usual. Does anyone know why or how this could have happened? I'm alittle worried about this.

A FLUKE...

This happens to almost all women at one point, they will have a fluke bleeding pattern.

BUT..Antibiotic use, using certain herbal supplements, ans vommiting can cause this.

This is because those tings reduce the amount of hormones in your body.

I've been on my period for 2 weeks now! If this is a fluke bleeding then how long is it supposed to last?
