Withdrawal Bleed
Every time I am on my break week from my pills I get so anxious waiting for my period. Usually it doesn't come until day 4 or 5. Last month it didn't come until day 5 of the placebo pills and it was a very light in consistency and brown to pink in color.
Are all these things normal to be expected while on birth control pills?

Re: Withdrawal Bleed
Hi theatrebug,
Yep, what you're describing is within the normal variation people experience while on the pill.
Have you given any thought to the questions I asked last time about your comfort level with the type of sex you're engaging in or the birth control you're using?

Re: Withdrawal Bleed
My bf and I have not had sex in a month because I've needed some time. I've also been on the pill for 6 years and always thought it worked great! It's just these last 2 months that I have been uneasy about it all.

Re: Withdrawal Bleed
Do you have any sense of what might be different for you recently?
For example, has anything been different in your relationship or in how you feel about you relationship?
How about in your life in general: any changes, or anything more stressful than usual? Have you felt more worried or anxious than usual about anything else?

The kyriarchy usually assumes that I am the kind of woman of whom it would approve. I have a peculiar kind of fun showing it just how much I am not.
