hi im 25 and currently taking loestrin 20
and have been for about a year, its the
only pill that seems to work as others
that i have taken have given me migranes
so this was recommended as i think it was
not as strong or something. anyway, for
the last few months i have exacaly on the
second week of taking the pill began my
period even though i still have a further
week or so to go i then finish for a week
and once again have a period i dont
understand why im having two periods as i
could understand if it was a new pill or
if i was taking it incorrectly but i know
im not and also i have been taking it
around a year and by now it should all be
settled. i do at times only have one
period which is when im still taking the
pill.
i'm really worried as i dont understand
what is happening im scared its bad news
so dont dare see the doctor can any one
help?

I don't understand. If you are scared it's
bad news, why wouldn't you go to the
doctor???

Oh it's probably just weird. Pills do that
sometimes. As long as you're not having
other symptoms like pain or
tiredness/fever or smelly discharge or you
aren't bleeding through more than a pad an
hour, you're probably ok.
But asking your doc wouldn't hurt, it
might be something to bring up before you
get your prescription renewed.
