Menstruation is a woman's normal monthly menstrual period. But what are the signs of abnormal periods? When is vaginal bleeding serious?...

Q: irregular period on Jolivette

Umm, well, last month I didn't get my period, but I took a test, and it said negative for possible pregnancy so I didn't worry, because I was extremely stressed out at that time anyway. This month, I've been taking my pills as usual. On Thursday I forgot it and took it at 6 p.m. But other than that, no worries, except I have the most intense cramps ever starting today and bleeding as if I'm on a period, but I still have another 7 days of pills left. I don't know if this is something to be really worried about, but it seems really abnormal to me, so I wanted your opinions?

Also, in case this is of any importance, I take Jolivette, which are POPs.

Its very common to skip periods while on the pill. And if you were late taking one pill it could cause your period to start. If you are really worried call the doctor but I don't think it should be anything to wory about

POP pills do not 'regulate' the cycle.

It is well known that periods on POP's can be irregular, spotty, scanty, or even non existant.
