Spotting When Skipping Period!! Posted: 06-20-05 17:45pm
Hello everyone,
i've been taking alesse for 2 years now
and have successfully skipped my period
several times in the past. 6 months ago,
however, I ended up spotting (unless if it
was a very light period) for an entire
month! I thought it was unrelated to my
skipped period because the spotting
occured almost 2 months later, but now i'm
finding myself in a similar situation.
I skipped the sugar pills from my last
pack and my period should have
ended yesterday. But last night I noticed
a very light brown clumpy discharge much
like the month-long one I had before! I
really don't want to go through that
again, especially because my boyfriend is
afraid of blood and won't have sex if i'm
spotting at all. :(
so, is there anything I can do to ensure
that this spotting/period goes away
quickly?! I'm currently in my 3rd week of
the active pills, so would I still be
protected from pregnancy if I stopped
taking my active pills until I get a
period again?
Please help!!! I'm really worried i'm in
a for another month of bleeding! :(
