I am currently taking a low hormone birth control pill along w/ antidepressants. I haven't experienced any spotting. I've taken several different antidepressants...None of them caused such a thing. I'm curious to know what your doctor finds out. I wish you luck, and that things get better for you. Keep me informed on both your health/well being, and your results.

Peace.

Well, I went a few days ago and had it checked out with a doctor... The pregnancy test came back negative and he said that it was probably just due to the low hormone bcp i'm taking and that it was normal... He didn't want to do an internal exam and I thought that he probably should have.

Anyway... Day 11 today of this disgusting brown stuff and i've just about had enough. My period is supposed to come tomorrow so i'm hoping it helps to get this over with.

I'm going to see my family doctor on the 17th of feb to see what's up.
The pharmacist said that she'd never heard of antidepressants effecting the birth control pill, but since they're both metabolized in the liver, there's always a possibility that one or the other could throw hormone levels out of whack...

Who knows, I hope this stops soon, there's no point in being on birth control if i've got brown spotting for half the month!! :p

i'm having exactly the same problem after starting prozac. i've never had spotting before and i've been on the pill for about 4 years now. what was up?
