the Pill And Spotting After 4 Months Posted: 03-27-04 00:47am
In early november I had a miscarriage and
have been on ortho tri-cyclen low since
then. It has been 4 months now. I have
not had any problems at all until 2 weeks
ago I started spotting and have been
spotting every day since. My period is
not scheduled to begin for a few more days
(next week). Is this normal? A week ago
I took a hpt just to be sure and it came
back negative but it may have been too
soon. I am not experiencing any camps at
all. Immediately when I wake up for the
past few days I feel nauseated for about
3-4 minutes then it goes away and I have
been having headahces more frequently for
the past week or so. Should I change my
b/c? I have had problems in the past with
b/c pills giving me yeast infections but
never spotting (except while I was on
depo, I spotted for over a year!) any help
would be great! Thanks!

It is odd that you would all of the sudden
get these side effects. They should have
happened in the first three months, not
now. Did you miss any pills? Or were
you late taking any? If not, maybe your
body just needs a different pill. Talk
to your doctor and see what he/she
suggests.

It could be the low hormones. It sounds
like you are like me.. If you go on the
regular ones they give you yeast
infections, but if you try and lower the
estrogen it gives you irregular periods.
When I went on lower estrogen pills it did
the same thing.. Lots of spotting and
irregular periods. For me I am lucky so
far, I started the depo and only bled for
6-7 weeks.. Now I just get small spotting
from time to time. They may have to try
another low-estrogen pill..
