Spotting 3 Times a Week - Please Help Posted: 05-17-05 19:02pm
Up until a year ago I was on
ortho-tri-cyclen for almost 4 years
straight . I never had any problems
except extreme nausea .
My doctor had me switching to yasmin,
ortho-tri-cyclen low, tri-nessa, to try
and get rid of the nausea .
Come to find out I had an ulcer so I got
antacids and went back to ortho-tri-cyclen
because it was the only thing to help with
my skin .
So the problem is....
I've been back on ortho-tri-cyclen for 5
months now and since the beginning I have
been spotting up to 3 times a week .
Sometimes it is only for a couple of hours
and other times for a day . It is light
brown and then pink .
Does anyone know what the problem is here
? If it is the birthcontrol itself or
something else ? I'd really appreciate
it because my doctors can't come up with
anything at all . It's 5 months, any
side effects should have gone away from
now.

The only thing I really know that causes
spotting from birth control is if your not
taking your pill at the same time every
day, if your late or are missing some
pills that can cause spotting, thought if
your doing all of that correctly I am not
sure what would be the direct cause of
your bc making you spot.
