    By all means wait and see what the dr has to say unless you start to bleed more than normal or experience any new symptoms. I'm using an IUD and I took about 2 months for my body to adjust to it. I hope it gets better for you...sorry not much help! Hang in there! :)

    I am a Nurse Practitioner, but that is very weird. I really don't recommend anyone giving medical advice over the internet, but you may have to switch to something else. Please do follow-up with your MD tomorrow. Are you taking the pills as directed?

    I work in a OBGYN office. If this is your first month on the pill, it's possible your body is just adjusting. We always suggest to patients to give the pill a few months to work. Be sure u are taking it the same time every day and do not skip any (as this will also cause break thru bleeding). If you are soaking a pad or tampon in a hour consistently or have large clots, then that could be another problem and then for sure I would call your docotors office. Hope this helps!

    Don't HAVE SEX and expect it to prevent your from getting pregnant.
    The pill is quite obviously not working for you properly....so if you do need to get er' done, make sure you use condoms etc.

    Never had this problem, but I would stop taking it until I saw my doctor...because I have been on things before and they always say that if the side affects aren't right stop taking it.

    LOL, i have ONE trust me...i dont want another. Always safe > sorry.

    Two things

    1) follow medical advice

    2) have sex anyway!

    amen to both!

    :sick:

    ....I've never met a guy that wouldn't throw up at that suggestion.

    As lovey dovey as my guy and I are (we've been together for 6 years) neither of us would EVER do this. Ugh. Sorry.

    Back on topic though!
    When I first went on the pill, my body took forever to get used to it. I didn't have a period for 6 months.
    My other friend however had your problem, she had her period(?) for 3 weeks when she first went on it. Her doctor told her that it was just her hormones, and that it would clear up soon. She continued to have problems for a while, and it turned out she just had to switch to a different brand as it seemed her body wasn't reacting properly to whatever that brand had in it.

    If you're driving yourself crazy with having to wait until tomorrow to see a doctor, try calling the nurse's hotline to see if they have any advice. Good luck :)

    i had a similar situation. I had been on my pill for over a year and over once in a while I will have spotting during week 2 and 3 or the pack. It might be the hormones not being strong enough. Mine was not heeavy enough to worry about but I am asking my Dr about it at my yearly. I would stay on it just so you don't mess up your cycle even more.

    This. Unless you or your partner don't want to be physical, they is no reason to stop having sex whilst on your period.
    I choose not to, but that's only cos it can be rather messy lol

    The Pill makes me a beast. Or pisses of my ovarian cysts.
    Even my mother hates me when I take it.

    I've had girlfriends who took that Seasonique or whatever it's called where they only get a period 3-4 times a year. Those TOMs did last for a month or so when they got them.

    I agree with these ladies! Just throw a dark towel under your rear and go for it! I don't let TOM tell me when I can and can't get my groove on :bigsmile:
