Is anyone familiar with the side effects of skin-clearing meds on your period?
I've been taking tetracycline and spironolactone for about a month and a half now now.. my dermatologist warned me that it could make my period heavier, make me actually grow breasts, etc. My first period while on the meds was fine, but I just had an insanely heavy period (for me, anyway) last week. Also, I've never spotted before, and I definitely have been the past few days. It's like my period stopped and started again. I'm having what feels like cramps, too. I'm kind of creeped out by this. How much blood is normal for spotting? (I'm hoping to god it's just blood and normal spotting and not something else, that's why I'm worried..)
