Bleieve it or not, the doctor thinks that i'm on a pill that's too HIGH for me. He says that makes sense because all my tests came back fine, my IBS hasn't been a problem, and my off-time of the pill has seen me FINE. So I'm on Alesse for now. Wish me luck. I'm happy. And if all else fails, what can happen? a baby? always a blessing.

Glad to hear that it is nothing serious. So many bad things have been going on lately, it's good to hear that this is "just a pill".

I was on ortho-novum a hundred years ago.... and I had a period every other week. It was miserable...thank goodness this was an easy "diagnosis"!

Well, lets hope thats all it was!!! The higher dose pills made me sick as well and I never got pregnant on the lower dose ones, I wouldn't worry too much about it!

Cool! I am on Alesse too and can assure you I haven't had any weird bleeding problems.

Whew, that's good to hear that it's probably just the pill. Best of luck with Alesse!

Aha! I knew it! I can't take estrogen based pills because this is what happens to me too, I just bleed every day of the month! I'm glad you're trying the lower estrogen pill. If that doesn't work either, there's always depo which I adore. No more estrogen for me! Between the headaches and blood, no wonder it was so effective for me as b/c. I didn't want to be touched!! OK, I'll get off my soapbox!

I had spotting with Alesse, but every woman's body is different. I'm happy that all your results were normal!

Good luck!
