Dear all, I would like you to share any piece of information you can either from knowledge or experience. I have been on Meliane since April and I have not had any problems. However, my last two or three periods have been very very light without much bleeding and no pain. Before taking BC I would be in so much pain and have very heavy periods. Is there something wrong with me or is this normal?

It's normal. Birth control is also used to reduce the length of your period and pain associated with it. You are fine.

That is a normal side effect of birth control pills. You see the pills can reduce the length of your periods as well as reduce the flow. I have a cousin who was only 12 years old on birth control because the doctor prescribed them to reduce her menstrual flow. She had a problem with having WAY TOO heavy of a flow. While she is taking her BC pills, she has a regular flow. Without them she will bleed too much. But if you are concerned with this, I would advise you to see your doctor.

This is very normal. In fact, many teenagers and women go on birthcontrol to help alleviate their pain and cramps and overall shorten their periods.
