more breakthrough bleeding for me :( yay
so it seems like i have my period...

this bites.

i am definitely going to talk to my doctor about switching to ortho cyclen instead. this breakthrough bleeding always happens during the end of the first week of my active pills (my regular period ends and then i'm fine for 5 or 6 days, and then the breakthrough bleeding starts), with the lowest dose of progestin. so i'm hoping that a constant (higher) level of progestin will work better.

this sucks, because aside from this i really like OTC a lot. but it's like i get two periods every month :\

you know what? I had breakthrough bleeding all the time despite being on many different bc's (nuvaring, mircette, orthocept, the patch, etc).

And then I went to my doc and it turned out I had leukemia. SO GET CHECKED OUT!

wow, i'm sorry to hear that.
i've already made a doctor's appointment, so we'll see what she says :)

and actually, I had a shot to induce menopause while I go through every thing, and I just started spotting this morning. So I would be interested in what anyone else had to say.
