[.] Five weeks.

Stares into space.

Haven't taken the birth control since Saturday. Hopefully this finally clears before the weekend and I can finally go camping.

wait do you mean you've been BLEEDING for five weeks??

skerple : YEAH.

BRUH.

I can't throw too many stones from my glass house of letting a period go 51 days before I went to a gyno, but GO TO A GYNO IF YOU HAVEN'T ALREADY.

WELL I don't know if it's because I'd skipped the placebo pills for two straight months and then I hiccuped and forgot to take my pills two nights in a row, and since then it's been spotty and full and spotty and now full again.

I hope going off for a week clears it out, yeah >B| but yeah if that doesn't help - gyno or planned parenthood

uhh biz what

Did your doctor tell you to skip the placebos because you can't actually just skip placebos without this sort of thing happening, there are different formulations for continuous birth control for a reason.

train bitch (+) : She did, and she warned that spotting could happen until my body settles into it.

Yeah you will spot for up to six months but all it takes is one missed pill to make your body flip out... idk why she didn't prescribe a continuous formulation?

train bitch (+) : It was prescribed to combat PMDD. I haven't experienced the super bad down swings since starting, so it's doing that much, at least.

Unless it's yaz (god I miss yaz) I don't see why not go with something you can't forget to take to avoid this happening repeatedly, but hopefully a few more days will be enough... I know for my body a week off would not be, sob.
