Just Started Tri-cyclen Lo. Need Help With Period. Posted: 07-13-04 11:31am
I just started taking the pill to prevent
endometriosis. My last period was a 28
day cycle. I am fifteen and 1/2 years
old. I started taking the pill on the
first day of my period. I have taken 19
pills and and experienced mild cramps last
night. This morning I started bleeding.
I have 2 active pills left and then the 7
inactive pills left in my case. Is this
my period or is this just the breakthrough
bleeding side effect. I do not have any
cramping today. Is this normal to start
a period this early? If so will it go
back on schedule to where I have my period
on the green pills. I previously had a
yeast infection could that have also
effected my schedule. Last night there
was small brown clots on my underwear
which I had during my yeast infection.
(yeast infection was about a week and a
half ago) I was just wanting to know if
this is bad and if I should seek help. Or
if it is normal for this happen when I
first began the pill.
Thank you every for your help.
Brittany.

I'm on the same pill and I started having
the kind of spotting you're talking about
a week before my period was due (the green
pills) I think they are supposed to even
out after a cycle or two and go to
strictly the green pills. I would say not
to worry about it, though.

Keep in mind that antibiotics can mess-up
b/c pills
