so recently ive been trying new birth control methods. first i was on the pill (tri cyclen lo) and then after about 2 years i switched to the depo provera shot (which i stopped using after the second shot cuz i constantly had my period) and now ive switched back to the pill again and i still have my period ALL THE TIME. like its there for a week and goes away for a day and then comes back again for another week, etc.! ITS SO FRUSTERATING!!! i use yasmin 21 now. any ideas of what i should do?

probably your body regulating yourself, after all the different hormone levels you have been putting into it. give it a cycle or two to regulate itself, and if it doesnt work, talk to your doctor about getting a pill that is a lil stronger.

I don't know what your age is but constant cycle bleedings are usually caused from several things. The number one cause is endometriosis and there is only one real cure for that, a hysterectomy. Sometimes tumors can cause excessive bleeding to and so can cysts. They can also be a result from severe hormonal imballances. I do suggest that if you aren't getting anywhere with your current doctor, you go to a GYN specialist but you need to get some serious testing done and find out the reason for the bleeding and not just treat the symptoms. Excessive bleeding can make you anemic and that can cause even more problems.

i had my period for 3 months (bright red) after the depo. it's like all the periods you missed are released. If it's dark then there might be another problem, maybe your body istrying to heal something there.
The pill is supposed to stop the period.
My sister did diff birth controls too, then had 2 children and still spots/bleeds all the time. Disruption of body's natural process.
