Hi

I have been on continous BC pills for 5 months now? Will I ever have a day without this breakthrough bleeding or spotting? I am on a low dose pill. Thought this would quit after 4 mos but nooo.... I am not on them for birth control just regulating crazy periods if I had them. Will it stop? Lezza

Hi

Thanks for the info on the two Pills. That really cleared things up for me and I do like YAZ. I have tried taking the pill at the same time every night. Thanks for that suggestion. Maybe that will help. But so far I still get spotting. It also depends on what pill I am in the pack on when the BTB increases. Seems to at the beginning of every pack. That is what is frustrating.

Your co-leader suggested shorter cycles and I have asked her to clarify it so I can stop these pills at some time, deal with a period and PMS and reset my period. I am willing to give that a try it just will depend on when.

Also if I do reset my cycle and give myself a period, WHEN do I start taking those pills again? Do I just skip the four white ones and start again like the Pills say to? That makes the most sence I guess. Thanks

Thank you

I will try the off time for those four days soon. After taking it so long (six months)I could probably do my own off time. So I will. I hope it works. For the time being I am taking it at the same time every night so it has seemed to help a little bit. I appreciate your feedback. This can be annoying! Lezza
