Novial--all Month Leakage... Are We Still Protected? Posted: 12-07-06 18:54pm
Hello,
this is my girlfriends first month taking
a birth control pill, she is taking
novial. She has had leakage for the
entire first month, now she is done with
her first package of pills and should have
gotten her period, but because she has
been leaking all month it is hard to tell
if she has period or is just still
leaking... She now is supposed to wait 7
days before her new pack of pills
starts... I want to make sure that
during these days she is still
protected...
Does this sound normal? I have heard
that to have leakage the first month is
normal when starting the pill, but I just
wanted to make sure that we are still
protected, we have had sex the past 2 days
with out her taking a pill... (as we wait
for the new pack to start)
anyway, thank you for any help you can
give me...

You guys should still be protected. She's
spotting because her body is still
adjusting to the new hormones and her ''
leaking '' should stop after this 7 day
break from pills.

Whatever you do follow your pill schedule
still, if you don't you will mess up the
cycle even further.
If she is still having break through
bleeding after the 7 day break then she
ought see her doctor/gyn as she may need
to change the type of pill if this one
doesn't agree with her.
