Longer Period When On Bc... Please Help Posted: 01-13-07 22:39pm
Hello,
i started taking ortho tri cylen lo last
sunday... My period was supposed to end 3
days ago but I am still spotting blood.
Till y'day it was fresh red blood but
today I spotted dark brown discharge.
I had started taking bc pills a few months
ago and the same thing had happened. I
was finding the spotting almost the whole
month till my next period and I got a
little scared and I stopped taking the
pills. But I have started it again and
the same thing seems to be happening.
I just wanted to ask... Do u guys think
that it will go away in a month or two...
Or atleast I should take it for like 2
months and see if it works and the
spotting goes away??? Or should I just
stop it now???

Do not stop in the middle of a pack, that
usually makes the bleeding worse, in all
honesty.
You may need to consider switching pills
by your next pack. If after 2-3 months
your breakthrough bleeding is not in
control, it is usually time for a change.
