I'm on my third month of ortho tri-cyclen
lo and started my period a few days before
starting the green pills. Six days
later, i'm still bleeding. Last month,
my period started on the third day of the
green pills and only lasted four days.
Is this normal or something I should be
concerned about?

During the last month I was also on an
antibiotic for 10 days and lomatil for
about another 10 days. Could that be
screwing with my system? I've been off
both for maybe 2 weeks.

Yes, antibiotics cause birth control pills
to not be effective, so your body is
acting a little whacky. You should start
to notice some improvement as you take
your pill regularly.

Ok, good. Thanks.
Yeah, it's a 28 day pack, so the green
ones are the placebo.
