Lo Pills...?

I have been taking an Estrogen lo pill and this is my second month. (Junel Fe)

The first month I was on the pills everything was fine, now this month I got my period after 2 weeks of pills and during the pill free week, I didnt have anything. Are my pills working? is it just my body adjusting to the pills or is there something wrong. I know it can cause breakthrough, but then I didnt have anyhting during the placibo pills.

Is this normal?

When i first started taking my new pills, when i had BTB the week before i was supposed to have my period, i never had my period for that month. It just sounds like your body is getting used to the hormones, and once the BTB stops everything should be normal. Good Luck!

You might want to let your doctor know about this. Hopefully you'll adjust in another month or two and everything will be fine. If it doesn't get better, then your doctor may have to switch you to a pill that will be stronger to keep you from having breakthrough bleeding.
