i began taking "orthro tri cyclen lo" at
the beginning of this month. I am
getting married in a year and my
gynecologist told me to meet with her in
november so that we could shift my cycle
in case my period would fall during my
wedding and honeymoon week. Sure enough,
it does. I know that since we are
meeting in november, we will have plenty
of time to guarantee that my period will
not fall during the most important week of
my life. However, I also know that
whenever you skip your period,
breakthrough bleeding often occurs while
your body adjusts. I will need to skip
my period a total of two times before may
of 2006 in order to avoid having my period
on my honeymoon. If my gynecolgists
tells me to skip two periods starting in
november after my appointment with her, I
am aware that I may experience
breakthrough bleeding over the next few
months while my body adjusts to the new
cycle. My question is this...Will my
breakthrough bleeding end in time for my
may wedding and honeymoon? This will be
my fiance and i's first time having sex
and I do not want breakthrough bleeding to
put a damper on the most important week of
our lives. I would appreciate any help
you guys could give me. Thanks!
