Ortho-lo...am I Spotting Or Did I Get My Period Early??? Posted: 02-17-06 13:17pm
I recently switched from yasmin, which I
was on for 3 months....It gave me really
bad migranes and bad acne. I switched to
ortho-lo about a month ago. I'm still on
my first pack...I have 2 more active pills
to take. My question is...
For the past few days i've felt like I was
going to get my period. I just had that
yucky feeling and I was crampy. But,
nothing happened. Then yesterday, while
I still had 3 active pills, I kind of sort
of, I dunno....Maybe got my period? I
mean, it's soooooooooooo light, I don't
know if you would even consider it to be a
period. It's barely even there. It seems
more like spotting....It's brownish
colored, not reddish like it would be
during a period and super super light.
But, why would I get it 3 days before my
inactive pills are supposed to start?
Did I get my period? Am I spotting? I
thought I might be pregnant, no.....I took
a test...Negative. What do I do?
Should I continue to take the pills as I
normally would and take the inactive
pills? Should I go to a new pack?
Help!!!!!!!!! I'm so confused! I need
some girly power and advice!! Help me
girls!!!

Continue taking the pills as normal. It
is very common to spot while on ortho lo!
Your body is probably still adjusting to
the horomones in the pill too, so relax :)
