early period on ortho tri-cyclen lo Posted: 06-09-08 23:45pm
I have been taking ortho tri-cyclen lo for
over a year now, and I always have my
period during the 4th week of my pills
(placebo). Well, about 5 days ago I
started my period and I was only on the
2nd week of my pills. I am not sexually
active, the only reason I have the pills
is because they regulate my period and
this is the first time this has happened.
But, I can't figure out why I started my
period 2 weeks early instead of while I'm
taking the placebo pills as usual. Does
anyone know why or how this could have
happened? I'm alittle worried about this.

I forgot to mention that I haven't missed
a pill.

A FLUKE...
This happens to almost all women at one
point, they will have a fluke bleeding
pattern.
BUT..Antibiotic use, using certain herbal
supplements, ans vommiting can cause
this.
This is because those tings reduce the
amount of hormones in your body.

I've been on my period for 2 weeks now! If
this is a fluke bleeding then how long is
it supposed to last?
