fed up with my bcp!! (maybe TMI)

I've been on the pill for 7.5 years now, and the past few months something has changed to where I have spotting every freaking month. Even light clotting some of the times. I'll probably schedule an appt. with my dr. and see about switching to something else, but it's annoying b/c I know that every new pill or method comes with immediate side effects and takes a few months to completely adjust to, so the process can be long to come up with a solution.

sorry to vent!

    Ugh, that does stink. I had problems finding the right one for me but now that I have one with no side effects, I love it. Hope your Dr can help you out and find a good one for you. GL

  • That sucks!  I remeber how long it took for me to find one that worked for me!  Hope that it does not take you very long and that your Dr can help you with it.

  • Ugh! That really sucks.

    I'm on ortho-tri (generic, can't remember what it's called) and I like it, but I think I only like it because this has made me feel the least psycho. LOL. I'm dead serious. I was on Nuvaring before and it made me CRAZY. When I first started ortho-tri I loved it because I felt so much better. Now I feel more "even", which I guess is a good thing. I just wish it still wasn't putting a damper on my sex drive.

    I hope you & your doctor can figure something out that works for you.

  • Boo, I'm sorry! I've been having issues with mine too and am going to talk to my doc about switching at my annual next week. Being a girl sucks sometimes, doesn't it? :(
  • That is a bummer.  :(  Like the other girls, I've tried multiple pills before I found one that worked... now I'm on one that I don't like but I'll have to stick with it for a few more months.  So basically, I feel your pain!  Hopefully your doc can help you find something better, and soon!

  • I'm fed up with mine too! Granted I've only been on BC for 9 months.

    I hope your doctor is able to find something that works for you. I'm on my 4th BC and still having problems, but I'm not exactly "normal" to begin with.

  • That sucks! I wasn't happy with any that I tried either, so I quit taking it altogether.
