Hello!

Doctor has given script for pill, which has caused non stop bleeding, so wondering what other options people find work well?

  • I had the implanon put in after the birth of my first baby, had it in for 18 months before getting it taken out to TTC our second. I didn’t have it put in after the second, but had it put in after the birth of my third baby who turns 1 tomorrow & we’re going to TTC again next year for our last baby. No bleeding, no side effects and it’s been great.


  • The pill works well for me always has. Levlen ed. I have tried the mini pill and rod and neither worked for my body. After just having Bub number 4 and being 34 years old I am now looking into tubal tie or the marina.


  • That sounds scary!
    I would definitely go back or even have a phone consultation.
    We have just been using the pull out method.


  • We didn’t use anything and we have two planed kids..


  • For how long do you use this pill now ? Birth control pills, patches, implants, injections and rings that contain hormones can cause abnormal vaginal bleeding as a side effect. This can occur: During the first few months when a woman begins using hormone-based birth control. What I understand is that it might take three months for bleeding to improve after you start taking hormonal birth control. But again I would discuss any concerns with the Gp


  • Getting advice from a GP asap is good for sorting out any issues and concerns. It is always a good idea to get issues sorted asap.


  • To be honest I would already go back to the Gp on your symptoms of non stop bleeding and discuss other options.


  • I’ve always been to scared to try any other invasive birth control methods, so in my predicament, condoms have been the best for us


  • I personally think the needle works the best. It lasts up to a year and only rarely you get your period.


  • Condoms are a classic if the pill isn’t working. Although you might like to talk to the doctor about that reaction – it sounds abnormal. At the very least they might be able to prescribe a different pill.


  • A follow up visit with GP is always a good idea when issues occur.


  • Discuss with your GP – I found implanon to be a good option.


  • I think you should talk to your gp or contact women health center.
