Messed Up And Didn't Take All Pills In Pack
Updated
Lisa Says:
I started Lo Loestrin FE for heavy bleeding. I'm on third month but I messed up and was trying not to get a period at all so I was only taking the green pills, none of the white or brown. Into the second week of pack 3 my breasts started getting really sore and now I started bleeding and have been bleeding for 6 days. Dr. says continue on pack 3 and take ALL pills and then start pack 4 and hopefully that will correct itself. Does anyone know how long the bleeding will go on? Its not break through bleeding, it is a period flow.

It's still considered break through bleeding, it all is, when you take hormonal contraceptives, you don't get a regular/real cycle at all.
It may take a week or longer, but if you finish another pack and there is no change, then you should contact your doctor.

Are there any other questions or comments?
