I have been on birth control for about 6 years now and since starting it I have been pretty regular. Last month I spotted 3 days before I was supposed Af was supposed to show up. Then got a shorter period than usual on that Wednesday. Well it's the next month and I'm spotting again. I have no idea what this means. Is this something I should be worried about? Do I need to see a Doctor?
Thanks
Re: Spotting?
This same thing happened to me... I was on ortho tri cylen lo for over 4 years and then all of the sudden I would spot before my period. I let it go on for a few months and then switched to Yaz. I have been on that for a year and hated it so I am thinking about nuva ring now.
The spotting didn't seem to be a problem with me. I would ask your doctor to be sure,
Nope I haven't missed a pill. I'm pretty consistant on the time too since I'm up getting ready for work and I take it before I head out the door. I'm wondering if my body is rejecting the pill like some of you suggested. I guess I'll just see what happens next month. AF also showed up a day early...so something is definitely up with my body and my birth control.
