    I understand why you went from old pills to new pills. But I do not understand why you went from new pills back to old pills. That does not make sense. You should stay on new pills.

    The bloody discharge was your period. It just acted differently because of the way you changed your pills.

    Please do not ever stop pills after only 10. You need to take the whole month every month.

    If you cannot keep up with the pills I think it may be time to change your method of birth control.

    If you stop and start the pills you will have many problems with your period.

    I am not sure your age, but from all of your posts so far it sounds as if you should choose a different kind of birth control. Or, just stop having sex altogether. You need to be sure if you are ready to have a child or not.

    If you are not, I recommend you abstain from sex.

    You cannot stop and start birth control pills on your own. You could be doing damage to your hormones by taking them only when you think you need to. Besides, you are now no longer protected against pregnancy.

    I think that is a wise decision.
