I have been on Alesse birth control for the past two months. I never missed a pill but I did start taking the second set of pills at night instead of in the morning. Well last month I got my period on 8-22 and it was only like a day and a half long and was early. Unusual for me. Now this month I started getting light cramps last Tuesday the 9th and have had them on and off since. I have some spotting but no heavy flow. I am not sure what to think any suggestions? Should I worry?

If you have only been on alesse for two months it could just be your body adjusting, I have been on the pill for a few years and some of my periods are short and light as you described... I have also heard that at the startof birth control there may be breakthrough bleeding perhaps that is what you have had?

Have you had any other symptoms apart from cramps?
