Please Help- Period Wont Stop... Posted: 02-10-07 20:03pm
I am on ortho tryclen lo and I wanted to
skip a period while I was traveling on
business. I just skipped the placebos
and went straight to the next pack (i now
know that this is not the correct way).
All that has happened is that my period
was delayed for 4 days and now I have been
having a period that starts and stops for
the past 10 days. I am halfway through
this pack and am starting to get scared.
Can someone please give me advice as to
when I should stop bleeding? My period
normally only lasts about 4 days.
Thankyou

Are you bleeding very heavily?
You may just have to wait until the next
cycle of placebos for your body to
reset...
If you are heavily bleeding then you
should go to the doctor.

Skipping is best done on a mono phasic
pill!!
That is why you are having problems,
because you are trying to skip on a tri
phasic pill!
That bleeding is normal, it will not harm
you.
When women use seasonale, they are told to
expect almost everyday spotting and
bleeding for the first few months, due to
the body needing to adjust.
You do not need to keep taking your pills
until the next cycle, you can stop and
allow a 'period'. Usually in women with
prolonged bleeding, this helps them 'bleed
it out'.
You would need a new pack though for when
your period is over.
