Abnormal Period Posted: 02-09-07 20:03pm


I've been on the pill since april of 2005. I've switched a few times to different brands because of bad side effects. I've been on ortho-tri-cyclen lo for about 3 months now (was on it about a year ago, switched brands and then went back to otc). Here's what happened: i lost my pill on saturday while at work (day 9 in the pack). I took the pill on sunday and monday. On monday, while at work, I started my period. I've missed a pill or two before and this never happened. I've been on my period since monday afternoon. This is day 5 and i'm still having heavy bleeding. I haven't missed a pill since last saturday. I thought by continuing with the pack, my period would stop. It didn't. I've been having a lot of pressure in my pelvic area, almost like cramps, but not quite. Today, the blood went from all red to red and brown. Has anyone ever heard of this? I started my period 2 weeks early, am having lots of pressure in my pelvic area, brown bleeding, and the bleeding is heavy on day 5. Any advise would be wonderful. Thank you! Also: I called my doctor and the nurse said to keep taking my pills as if I never started my period. I made an appointment for next friday for a pap.
