Still Bleeding Day 8

I started taking Tri Sprintec in October but I began to forget and was messing up. My period started last Saturday and I’ve been taking my new pack everyday since last Sunday. How long does it take for the pill to make my period stop. I take birth control only to regulate my periods because I’m irregular. The last thing I want is another 2 week period or even longer like I’ve had in the past.

That can be a normal side effect of this medication, according to FDA reports, you may experience irregular bleeding for the first 3 months, as a side effect, while your body gets used to the medication. Other side effects are listed as possibly including nausea, dizziness, headache, mood changes, weight changes, and PMS-like symptoms.


If things don't improve, after 3 months, you should inform your doctor as you may need to try a different medication.

How are you doing, now?
