How many tampons are you going through? If
you continue to go through 1 tampon an
hour for the next few hours, you need to
call your doctor's office.

when did you start your birth control?
shouldn't she not get her period until she
gets to the sugar pills? (that's directed
at our resident smarty, ingi)

But if you use more than 1 tampon pad per
hour for more than a few hours, you NEED
to call your doctor, mkay?

i was on a different pill but i was also
told it would take about 3 months to get
on track, but i would get my period during
the sugar pills and breakthrough bleeding
during the active pills.
i think you should call your doctor.

Glad you called your dr. I hope things
settle down for ya!!
Just thought that I share. When I started
on b/c (although a diffferent type) I got
my period after the first week of pills
and bled for the next three weeks until I
started a new pack then the next pack I
bled for 2 weeks, and after several months
I finally got back to normal.. Starting on
b/c can really screw ya up!
