early period on pill ? Posted: 01-10-08 10:54am


Hi! My period has started even though I still have 4 active pills left. I've been on the exact same birth control for over 2 years now, and this has never happened before. There is no chance I'm pregnant, so should I be concerned or is this normal? Thanks!

If you are concerned, you really need to call your doctor and ask.

It IS normal to occasionally have breakthrough bleeding, missed periods, or irregularity while on the pill, although it can be annoying. Likely causes for breakthrough bleeding in women who have been on the pill long term. Antibiotic use Saint johns wort usage certain RX drugs usage Missing a pill taking a pill later than usual
