View Full Version : Spotting, switched pills with no break, still spotting...

Was on Jolessa, it gave me cramps and made me moody, and in the middle of the second pack I was spotting pretty noticeably, not enough to fill a tampon but enough where I had to at least wear a liner.

I got over the way Jolessa made me feel so I switched to Loestrin24Fe... but I just took the new pills right away and didn't allow myself to have a "period" since I figured I was still spotting. Well I still am on the Loestrin24fe, I think I feel better still than the Jolessa but I'm frustrated that I'm spotting almost as much on Loestrin a little bit of cramping too but again I believe I'm all around better than when I was on the Loestrin... except that I'm spotting every day still. :/

I've only been taking the new Loestrin for two weeks, should I stick it out? Or should I stop taking them for a beat, have a "normal" period and then start again and hope for the best? Seems so silly to be bleeding for nearly a month... but it's probably my fault for switching pills will no break?

Thoughts and advice would be wonderful.
