heres the deal: around june-september of this year i was taking the birth control pill YAZ. I was always taking it every other day because i forgot to take it, so in september i gave up and stopped taking it. I didnt take it for 3 months and never got my period. I took a pregnancy test about 3 weeks ago and it came out negative. so i started up on the pill again so i would get my period. I have been really good and have taken it every day without forgeting a pill. I am now on my last 3 pink pills, so i am expecting my period in about 4 days. But something strange has begun. I have chocolate brown discharge, and a little cramping. Im not sure if this is normal, or if soemthing serious is going on. I also saw on a website that your period can begin a little early on your first pill back. Can anyone help me understand whats going on?? IM CONFUSED!

Yes, this cramping and brownish discharge when starting the pill can be normal because the body is trying to adjust to being on the medication.
I would recommend checking with your doctor as well to see what they say.

If you took a break for the BC then it could just be from starting back up again. I had very irregular periods when I started my BC. If you don't want to get pregnant, use a back up form of protection. I am 11w and 2d pregnant with my and hubby's first. We conceived while I was on BC, having never missed a pill or ever taking on late. I had been on it for almost exactly a year.
