no it is not normal. and three months is long enough to have bleeding while on the birth control pill. basically you may need a higher dose pill to control this breakthrough bleeding. if you primary care medical provider is not experienced in doing these adjustments see a gynecologist to get you started on a different oral contraceptive. this can be fixed.
near constant periods on birth control? . i started lo loestrin fe on january 8. this was the first day of my period. i was on my period until january 22 - too long. i wasn't due to get my period again until february 3 per the pills. well i'm bleeding again - like a regular period and i'm also having cramps. i understand that some irregular bleeding is normal when first starting birth control but this is ridiculous. my doctor told me to give it 3 months but i can't deal with this for 3 months. what should i do and is this normal?
