Breakthrough Bleeding After Years On Ortho 777 Posted: 06-02-05 09:34am
I've been taking ortho 777 for more than 6
years with no breakthrough bleeding.
Late last year I noticed breakthrough
bleeding, so I switched pills not
realizing the breakthrough was due to an
infection. I took the medicine and
recovered from the infection. However,
before being diagnosed with the infection,
I had my pills chnaged to ortho tri.
Well, ortho tri caused severe stomach
cramping and clotting so I switched back
to ortho 777. Now i've been back on
ortho 777 for 3 months and I still get
breakthrough. It always comes a week to
12 days before my period and it is dark in
color. The closer it gets to my cycle,
it starts to clot a little bit. That all
being said, when I started the ortho tri,
I changed my cycle by a week. Could that
be the reason? My body is so use to
having period a certain time it is
fighting with the pill. Help if you can
and thanks so much!!!
