Birth control and periods
I'm on combo birth control pill. Almost 2 years now. Will my period get lighter and lighter over time and eventually go away?

Re: Birth control and periods
Hi Meggy,
Monthly bleeding experienced on birth control tends to continue, perhaps becoming lighter. This won't be the same for everyone though.
