Side Effects Including A Long Period

Hi I have been on Levlen for 11 days now. I know this isn't very long but I have been experiencing most of the side effects listed including severe nausea, a little bit of vomiting, headaches and mood swings. However I also experience major fatigue and my period has lasted me for 11 days. I know I should go to a doctor but cannot right now. I have decided to stop taking it because I don't think it is right for me. I am quite worried about my period lasting so long and quite want it to stop as it has started giving me cramps. Any ideas for how to make this bleeding stop?

Have you consulted your doctor?

Levlen is a hormonal based contraceptive and the side effects you are experiencing, including the breakthrough bleeding, can be normal for the first 3 months, while your body adjust to the hormones in it.

You're really not going to find an oral contraceptive that isn't going to cause some side effects for the first few months.

The bleeding should eventually stop on its own.
