I have been on Ortho Tri Cyclen Lo for a long time and never had any problems .. one day my partner and I decided I wasn't going to stay on the pill .. so i quit taking it ... and then I went back on it about a year later .. everything was normal .. then within the past few months I skipped several pills and then I got back on track ...... & then all of a sudden I got my period that lasted for 2 months .. I have never taken the placebo pills .. but I do wait a week before starting a new pack of pills .. so this month when i got to the placebo pills (quit taking the birth control) my period stopped ......... Why is this?

This can occur because of change in cycle such as due to missing pills and then going back on because the body is trying to adjust to the changes going on.
I would recommend seeing your doctor for further evaluation of the situation to see what they say.
