Lo Loestrin Fe Spotting All Of The Sudden? (Top voted first)

I have been taking Lo Loestrin Fe now for almost 2 years! I do not have a period due to my pill. I very rarely miss a pill. I am started week 3 of this pack. During the end of week 2, I had a little bit of blood only when going the restroom. Just a little on toilet paper for the last few days. I am concerned. Too soon for pregnancy test but I took one anyway at home, it was negative. I don't have any symptoms of anything! What could this be?

I am having a similar issue. I recently lost 20lbs. Wondering if the weight loss is messing with my hormones with the pill?

Hello, Brooke! How are you?

It could just be due to a natural hormonal shift in your body and adding the hormonal contraceptives on top. It happens that way, sometimes.

You should consult your doctor to be certain, but chances are that it's nothing to worry about.

How long has it been since you haven't had a period?

I am having a similar issue. No period since September of 2012 (when I started LLF) and then all of a sudden in May 2014, I started getting a period again. Now, I get a period every month in addition to spotting/vaginal bleeding mid-month about a week after my period ends. Anyone have any advice/similar experiences?
