Bleeding While On the Pill Posted: 01-27-06 01:29am
Hi everyone,
im in need of some advice. I had a baby
about 7 months ago and I started on the
pill almost straight away as I didnt want
to get pregnant again. My first three
months I was bleeding like a normal
period, I spoke to the doctor and he said
that it was normal and is because my
hormones are everywhere after having a
baby. Well I have kept taking it right
through skipping my sugar tablets as I
didnt want my period back for at least a
month or 2.
Well after the first 3 months the bleeding
subsided, then I missed a pill and got my
period almost straight away I decided to
come off the pill for a couple of days to
let my body have like a normal bleed.
This worked fine and the bleeding stopped
within a couple of days. Unfortunately I
mucked up the next month and you guessed
it got bleeding again. I started the pack
at the start of jan and decided I would
take it at the same time everyday, the
bleeding stopped and was good for 3 days
then I got it back again and it has been
going since tuesday with no signs of
stopping.
Do you think this is because the pill I am
taking is too weak for my body or is it
because I didnt take it correctly for the
last 3 months.
I have never had these problems before and
the bleeding all the time even while I
still keep taking the pill is driving me
nuts.
Should I stop taking it for a couple of
days and restart?
Please any advice would really help.
