Bleeding Inbetween Periods Please Help Posted: 09-17-07 09:42am
I have been on Ortho Lo for about 4 or 5
months now. They say within the first
couple months you can experience in
between period bleeding. Well I am just
now starting on my 7 pills before my
period and I'm bleeding and cramping up.
My fiance is worried because my friend had
similar symptoms when she was pregnant.
Could it be pregnancy? or is it just a
side effect of my Ortho? Thanks...

It could be due to a lot of things....
stress, change in diet, exercise, sleep,
etc. And it could be from the ortho too.
As long as you have been taking your pills
correctly, you should not need to worry
about pregnancy.
If the bleeding in between periods does
not go away (it should've after a few
months) you can switch to a different
pill.
