Period On the Pill..
Posted: 06-03-07 19:53pm

hey girls. i would really appreciate an opinion on this because its confusing and frustrating for myself.
so im 2 days away from my placebo week and im already bleeding. a couple of days ago i was spotting and today its been constant. its pretty light and im just guessing this is my period? i dont know. ive been on alesse for 5 months now and never had spotting problems and my period happend on the same day every month. i havent been late or missed a pill at all.
what does this mean? should i be switching my pills?

No problem at all. I was on Allesse for something like 6 years, and am just now getting back on Allesse.

Sometimes might start bleeding a couple days before the placebos (or pill-free week), sometimes it might not come for 3 or 4 days into the placebo (or pill-free) week. No big deal. Aunt flo is just impatient this month. It doesn't mean that you need to switch to a different pill.

When your bleeding doesn't fit perfectly into the week it's supposed to, don't stress. Just make sure that even if you've already started bleeding, always finish all the active pills on schedule, and if you are still bleeding but are supposed to start your next pack, start it anyways - always stay on schedule.
