Period while on pill??
| Thu, 05-31-2007 - 11:18am |
Okay, I have been with same guy for the last four years and one birth control (patch) and then about 9 mo. ago I switched to LoEstrin 24. It has been great up until about 2 weeks ago. I missed a pill and took it late the next day and then took the pill for that day about 2 hours after. I know this is not recommended, but I have done it before and been fine. Now I have had a on/off period for the past 2 weeks and now I am starting on my "inactive" pills. What is going on? I don't feel any different and I don't know if I should expect my "real" period or am I pregnant?
Any advise on this would be greatly appreciated.
Thanks

Hi , welcome galfoxgloves!

Thanks for your advise. I should be getting my "pill period" today, waiting for those wretched cramps to pop up. I have noticed that although my period lasts from Friday to Monday now, it seems that the pain is almost condensed in that time and is far worse than when I was on the patch. I guess that is the price you pay for a shorter cycle. Mine usually lasted about 7 days on the patch. Will be giving an update and so glad I found these boards!
Happy Friday Everyone!
