Q: Discharge with Ortho-Cyclen monophasic

I started taking birth control [Ortho-Cyclen... the monophasic kind, not the Ortho Tri-Cyclen] on August 18, 2008. Ever since then, I've been having weird discharge! Now, most days I really don't have ANY discharge, but some days, I have lots of sticky white discharge. One time, I had this discharge, but it was mixed with very dark blood. [This was about a week before I was to start my period, but I was so worried it was implantation bleeding and that I was pregnant!] Well, my period just stopped on Sunday, which is the day I also started my fourth pack of pills. I've had the usual light brown/pinkish end of period discharge for three days now! I usually have it one day only, especially since I've started the pill. This is kinda making me worried... I hate for things not being right with my body!

The only thing I can think of is that my boyfriend and I had sex twice during my period this time... on Saturday and Sunday, but I was only bleeding lightly. Could this be the cause of my discharge?

Oh yeah, I itch down there... really bad... before I get large amounts of this discharge! My mom told me it's the hormones in the pill making me itch... she said it happened to her when she was on BC. Is this true?

I am on the same pill as you. My discharge is like that also my doctor said it was completely normal. Now I don't have the itching like you do though but i'm sure its normal to. Sometimes I itch but not often.
