Af For 9 Days...
Posted: 05-07-06 14:57pm

I just had my af for 9 days... What is up with that? Usually i'm 3 days and then that's it, but this sucked! Light at first, pinkish and about a week earlier than I was supposed to have it. Then it got heavier with more cramps. Could it be cuz I didn't have anything but a day of spotting last month? The buildup maybe? I hope this isn't gonna be a regular accurance now. I thought periods were supposed to be regular on birth control...

How long have you been on birth control? That's happened to me before, too. I'd start spotting about a week before I was supposed to get my period, then get my period in full swing. It hasn't been a regular occurrence in my experience. When I called my doctor about it, she told me that it's normal, especially if your body is still getting used to it.

I've been on b/c since mid 2004 I think. If I am remembering correctly.

*edit for my stupid grammar lol*

Hmm. If your period's like that next month, you could call your doc and see why they think that's happening. Maybe your dosage needs to be changed or you should switch to a different brand.

Yeah I was just talking to my bf about going to see my doctor cuz I have never had my af last that long. But it seems to be over now, so if it gets like that next month I will definitely make an appointment. Thanks for ur opinions ladies :)
