View Full Version : Ladies questions, help!!!!!!
Having a panic!! I have stayed on the contraceptive pill cilest for 3 months now, i'm in my 3 rd month, for the last 5 days i've had a browny discharge, and today had a slight spot of fresh blood, not much at all. I still have another 12 days left b4 i finish my packet!!!!! I had loads of blood test taken in the month, which all came back normal, so all is fine their, and i am up to date with my smear tests. I don't know what to do, is the spotting normal???
Thanks

Totally normal....your trying to get used to the hormones in the pill. Your body takes time because you are manipulating your natural cycle. I was on the pill for years and then got off. It will happen again when you get off of it. No worries. Also, I am not on the pill anymore and I still get brown stuff 7-10 days before my period most months. This is probably the time your body had its period before you got on the pill. Just an adjustment of hormone levels.
Hope I have helped.
Thanks for your response, I have been on cilest for nearly 10 years, I have no problems with it at all, this is the first time i have stayed on it without stopping, (3rd month continued packs) so i guess it must be normal that my natural cycle is confused!!
I worry that it will mess my body up with all the hormones, but doctor says its fine to continue packs without a break.

I think it will be fine to go without a break. We did fertility treatments and they gave me pills to make me start and stop when they wanted me to...modern medicine is a marvel :) I went like 40 days with no cycle b/c they made me.
I have been told by my OB that changing pills is good because your body gets used to the other.
Spotting is normal too. Hope you get to feeling better.
