Bleeding... For 3 Weeks!!!
Posted: 10-25-06 07:12am

Righty ho... On the... 23/24/25 sept my and my bf had sex. We used a condo im on bc and all that. I was due my period on the 16th oct. A couple of days after we last had sex I forgot to take my pill (im on the mini pill btw) anyway. Took it as soon as I could obvo. And havent forgot one since. As I knew you are not protected for about a week we havent had sex since... But... I have been bleeding ever sice missing the pill. I know you can get spotting... But this is really bad bleeding. I had clear fluid with brown blood in to begin with, and then when I thought I was getting my period I was moody emotional depressed and cramping for a day and then it got really heavy. Its mostly I the morning when its heaviest. Iam also passing alot of clots. Im really worrid because my period normally only lasts 4 days!!! 3 weeks is a long time!! I smoke and also have been drinking at leat one for the past month (ive statrted uni! Lol) so would they be any side effects!? Any advice would be fab! Cheers guys x x x x

The mini pill is a little different than regular pills, but just like regular pills, if you miss a certian amount you will have bleeding like what you describe. It is not abnormal, and to be expected when you miss pills... But it is obviously something that your doc should know about, even though it is normal... Just in case.
