Sudden irregular periods?

I’ve been taking ortho tricyclen lo for a year. I have been sexually active for a year and we dont pull out or use any form of protection. About 4 months ago I lost a couple of my pills I know one was from the center so I just took the next one in line. I’ve been doing that the last 4 packs or so. A couple of months ago I found the missing white pill and took it I figured they are all the same if they are the same color. I thought now I will be caught up a day. I never once went a day without taking a pill. Like today is monday I took tuesdays. Anyway I always had regular periods. My sister said my cycle is changing and I need to throw my pack out and start a new one. At the beginning of december I had a period then started another one the 31st of december. That one dragged into january. My periods are never at the very beginning of the month. At the end of january I had a period that did not drag into febuary. Febuary 10th I had brown discharge after intercourse but it quit by the end of the day. I dont know if I am having two periods a month now or if my cycle has changed and I need to start a new pack or what. I had a pap last year and it was fine. Can anyone help?

Answer #1

It could be your body’s hormones changing and you may need to change to a different type of pill to compensate. Our bodies change over time, so we should change our pills with it. That’s why every time you go back to your gyno/doctor they will ask you how the pill is going for you… even after being on it for years.

Talk to your gynecologist or health care physician about your options.
