birth control
"I switched to Sprintec almost two months ago. The first month went well. My period only lasted about 4-5 days instead of my normal 5-7. My breasts did get a bit swollen and sore the first few weeks of the pack, but it wasn't terrible. However, I have noticed that the first few days of a new pack, I get vaginal itchiness and I worry that I'm going to get a yeast infection.
This second month has been terrible, though. I started my second week of pills with some light spotting, and now I am at the end of my 3rd week and it has progressively turned into a fairly regular flow, so much so that I have to wear a tampon every day. I'm nervous to see how bad it gets next week when I'm actually supposed to be on my period."
