ok, so my bf and i had sex, and i noticed
that the stuff coming from me was
pink-ish....so i went to the bathroom and
sure enough it seems i was
spotting....what could be the reason for
this?
i am on the pill and we use condoms...and
i did just start a second pack of the pill
right after the first cause i couldnt
afford to get my period that
weekend....could it be because of that?

I'd suggest that you see your OB-GYN. If
you just started using the pill as BC you
might chalk it up to a spotty period and
getting used to the pill. Did this only
happen after sex? Only once? Or
continually?

this only happened once so far...last
night....i did experience some itching
down there earlier in the night to make me
think i may have a yeast infection. the
spotting wasnt so much after sex as
during. the discharge was thick and milky
and redish-brownish. it went away after
sex.....no sign of it this morning.

I'd venture to say that it might not be
that serious. However, if you suspect
that there is something that is wrong, I'd
suggest that you make an appointment to
see your gyno. When was your last annual
exam?

my last exam was actually 3 weeks
ago....still waiting for the results to
come in....so i think ill wait till the
end of the week and see what that says...
it happened again last night, but not as
much as the night b4, and it wasnt as
thick. im hoping its nothing serious cause
i been going through a rough time lately
with my health and cannot deal with
another issue.

if its a yeast infection, it should be
easily solved with oral tablets, and
vaginal insertion tablets. i had a fungal
infection before.

you said you took the pills back to back
with no break or placebos right? This
could be your cause of spotting..many
women who attempt to completely "skip" a
period by taking pills back to back dont
succeed and do end up spotting...as for
the itching and such...as someone else
said, it could be due to a yeast
infection..if it doesn't go away you might
want to make a trip to the gyno to get it
cleared up

hi i have took my pill back to back before
and sure enough i had spotting to i think
this maybe the cause for you as well as i
also had an itch down there which worried
me but i think it was bc a period id a
natural thing for woman and we are
stopping that from accuring by taking the
pills back to back and bc there is a lot
of blood that usually is let out it had to
spot to get rid of some, thats my opinion
anyways hope it helps

your prescription isn't designed to be
taken back-to-back. your uterus is
building up all this blood lining and it
needs to go "somewhere". i wonder what
your next period is going to be like if
you do this. logically it SHOULD be 2x as
bad as normal. i don't know if that will
be the case, but i would highly suggest
that it's probably not smart to take pill
packs back-to-back.
