Help Please
Posted: 11-13-04 20:22pm

I was on the pill yasmin for four months when my period started early. As soon as it started I discontinued use of the pill, but it's been three weeks and i'm still seeing my period. I won't be able to visit my gynecologist until next month, so I was hoping that someone could give me some advice. I would really appreciate it.

Well, since you were only on it for four months i'd say you were experiencing breakthrough bleeding (quite normal when starting a pill) why'd you stop taking your pills? My guess is that because you stopped taking them you began your pill induced period (whihc is diff. From a normal one) and then becaus eyou didn't begin them again in a week your body started it's normal period which due to the lack of hormones is lasting longer then normal. It could stop very soon or it may not, it's hard to say. If you want, i'd say begin taking the pill sagain if you plan to continue using them and just wait for your body to get back on track.

Thanks for the reply...I didn't stop taking the pills until after my period started, so I really don't know what the problem is, but thanks for the suggestion...I'll try sagain and pray it works...
