Time to switch pills?
| Wed, 11-10-2004 - 11:13am |
The last few months have been different than the last year or so I've been on OTC lo. This month I started AF on the 4th day of my third week active pills and I've had it for the past week (and it usually lasts 3-4 days). In the beginning, I was very crampy (which is unusual). The two months before, I didn't start my period til very late in the plecebo week. My best friend has commented that I've been more moody than usual (going from happy to sad quickly). I also noticed that this month (sry if too much info) tht I had discharge towards the beginning of the month that I used to have before the pill when I was ovulating. Does this warrant a change in pill? I have to start a new pack Sunday, so I have limited time to talk to the doctor (but its possible). Thanks so much!

Did you start doing anything differently about the time you noticed the changes in your cycle? Did you start a new medicine, change your diet and begin loosing weight or start large doses (1,000mg or more) of vitamin C? Those things can bring on irregular bleeding in some women. It would probably be a good idea to talk with your doctor and see what s/he says. Let us know how you're doing, ok?
Good luck,
