I'm On Birth Control...and My Period's 2 Weeks Early...
Posted: 04-26-07 20:49pm

I've been on the same birth control for sometime between 2 and 3 years...I've never really had a problem with this birth control.....but all of a sudden...my period is 2 weeks early. I'm assuming it's my period. But it's not like full blown period....it's very, very light, and it's a light brown color. Kind of like what it looks like at the very end of my period. I noticed it after my boyfriend and I had had sex a few times a day for a few days in a row...and we weren't very..."gentle", and I wondered if maybe he hit something wrong "up in there" because I can be pretty sensitive. I'm allergic to latex, and the non-latex condoms still irritate me a little bit and can leave me a little uncomfortable down below for like a day. I wondered if maybe that had something to do with it too.....but it's still going on. And we haven't had sex for like 5 days now. I'm starting to get a little freaked out that something may be wrong. Anyone have an idea of what may be be going on? Hope to hear from somebody soon!

Did you miss a pill or take one late?

That will cause breakthrough bleeding.

That is not your period, your period only comes during your placebo week. ANY other bleeding is referred to as breakthrough bleeding/spotting.

Antibiotics will cause this as well, because they reduce the effectiveness of the pill.
