Started Taking Tri-cyclen-lo , Now Period Won't Stop !
Posted: 05-22-07 22:10pm

I just started taking tri-cyclen-lo, and like it says on the box I started it the Sunday I had my period, which happened to be the day my period started. Twelve days later I still have my period, some days its light and others extremely heavy... And now instead of being a reddy-brown color its a very dark red, almost black.. should I be worried about this or is it normal? I don't want to stop birth control because I am a regular drinker and drug user and sometimes make unsafe choices, and my doctor told me that the morning after pill might not work every time.
I don't know what I should do.. Please help! Confused

.continue taking you pill and talk to you doctor about the coloring of the blood.

.it takes up to three months of being on the pill for your body to regulate itself to the hormones so it will take time, just hang in their
