    I am 17, sexually active, and on birth control. I am on day 11 of my period.
    I am usually a 6 dayer so this is scaring me. Flow is the same as a day 2 would be. Please help!

    It could be due to your age... teens often have more irregular bleeding from time to time, or it could be due to the birth control, which can also sometimes cause irregular bleeding... even if it never did before.

    It would be a good idea to have any unusual bleeding checked. Since you are sexually active, it would be wise to start having regular pap smears done as well if you haven't already.
