Active User, very eHealthy

So working tonight, and "oh"... I head to the bathroom.. Seems i've started my period! (woo-hoo!) but when I say seems I mean that its kinda different... Its not really the bright red that it usually is, more of a darker red - to almost a brown, and its thicker... Is this all part of being on the pill? Sooo many questions!! Haha, sorry ppl!! Confused

the Pill

Cherry_pie,
yes it is probably the pill that you are on. I have been on mine for quite a few months and my period is different. It was more thick and filmy looking, and the color was more brown. Just to let you know this does go away. Wait it out and you shall see.
