I'm currently on my 12th day of having my period! Plus my period started a week earlier than it should have. I've been having cramping throughout the day. The last two days it seems as if it's finished but then I start bleeding again. I was recently switched from the birth control Spingtec to Mononessa. Could it just be a side effect of the new birth control or should I go get seen by a doctor to make sure nothing serious is wrong with me?

can u just call the Dr who switched your prescriptions?
u r using hormones and messing with hormones in a very complicated mechanism. if u r back to your cycle it should stop quickly but calling Dr or Nurse never hurts.
