Spotting on Yaz while sick

Hi,

A friend of mine (over on the PMS/PMDD board) is on her first month of Yaz. She has been pretty sick with an intestinal infection. She is not taking any meds for it yet. She has two active hormone pills left and she has already started spotting pretty heavy with cramps and headache. Should she be worried?

None of us on the PMS/PMDD board have ever had this happen except when we skipped pills by accident and she has not forgotten to take any of her pills. I was thinking that maybe she is just going through the normal adjustment phase (3 months of getting used to the BCP) or perhaps being as sick as she has been is interfering with the Yaz?

Any help is appreciated,

Marcella
