Period Talk - Flow + Color

Tl;dr: I’ve had bleeding/spotting/periods more times than I should’ve since February but I’ve been having health issues and meds interact with birth control. I don’t know if I should be concerned by the types and would like opinions

Hey guys! I have had some weird health issues this year and my periods - despite being on birth control - have been super wacky due to stress and being on antibiotics four different times already this year which makes birth control less effective.

I am at the point I can’t tell if what I am experiencing each time is “normal” or concerning so if y’all could like,, help me decide I would appreciate that.

Since February, I have had maybe 4 “periods” but again, my birth control is less effective bc of antibiotics so maybe it’s that.

I’ve had ones that were roughly a week long and instead of “normal” period blood it was dark and thick, like it was old and just finally coming out.

Today 4/23 my presumed period started a week early. For once it’s actual blood color and not dark. It is actually flowing, but I can feel it dripping??

I just wanna know if I should be concerned because I don’t know what is considered normal for periods anymore.

Thank you for those who read and let me know!! I appreciate any help or opinions
