Didnt miss any pill and took them on time and im still getting break through bleeding?
Breakthrough bleeding can be a side effect that can last up to 3 months or more. If you have been on birth control for at least 3 months and you still have breakthrough bleeding, you should consult your physician. Consistent breakthrough bleeding can be a sign that you may need a higher dosage of birth control pills. I have learned from physicians that increasing the dosage of the birth control helps regulate your menstrual cycle and eliminates breakthrough bleeding and therefore being more effectively protected from pregnancy.

When you start birth control it is not unlikely to have spotting or breakthrough bleeding. This is a side effect that can last up to 3 months or longer. You should not stop taking your birth control because you will actually mess up your cycle and when you will have your period.

Spotting and breakthrough bleeding usually stops when switched to a higher dosage of birth control.

I'VE been on birth control for 12 years and in the last two years have had to switch FROM LO OVRAL TO other doses for breakthrough bleeding. TRIED OVCON35 LOESTRIN 24 AND 1.5 ORTHO LO AND NOW LEVORA?
It seems unlikely that the birth control pill is the cause of your breakthrough bleeding, although LoEstrin and Ortho Tricyclen Lo certainly aren't the typical choices for bleeding control in a woman with breakthrough bleeding. Talk with your health care provider about ruling out other causes of bleeding. Be sure to keep a good record for a few months noting exactly what days you have bleeding, where you were in the pill cycle when you bled, and whether you recently had intercourse. This information can help guide you and your health care provider to a possible fix.

Can stopping birth control cause irregular periods?
Yes it is possible to experience an irregular menstral cycle when you discontinue taking birth control. This is because when you take birth control it actually regulates your period. By stopping birth control you may experience breakthrough bleeding. Breakthrough bleeding is when you menstruate at times when you normally would not begin your menstral cycle. Breakthrough bleeding can possibly last for up to a full period or longer. Stopping birth control may also stop your period for a month or longer or you may not receive your period around the normal time of which you used to when you were taking your birth control.It depends sometimes you're period gets normal after birth control but sometimes it may still keep being irregular. It depends on the person and or pills
