Getting Period On Pill At Wrong Time
| Wed, 06-04-2008 - 6:32pm |
I have been on Loestrin for about 4 months and its been fine, no period really at all during the sugar pills which is fine with me. But this month, i have been completely sidetracked because 1 1/2 week into my new pack, i get my period, more than spotting. of course my doctor is impossible to track down and they are never any help. anyone have thoughts on this?

Hi there,
If you have been late or missed any of your pills recently, this could cause enough of a decrease in hormones to trigger breakthrough bleeding.
Also, by now you have been on your pill long enough that your body has adjusted, and it may simply have decided it doesn't like your pill.
Things like stress and illness can sometimes cause changes too.
At this point I would say it is in your best interests to wait it out and see what happens.
