Iv been taken off the normal 21 day combined pull and put on the 28day mini pill. This was due to migraine I was getting all the time. Iv been on this new pull for about a month and a half now. This pill is meant to stop me having periods. I have been on my period for the last month and a half now! I don't know if this is a side effect or what. It's not a proper period. It's like thick red/brown discharge. I used to get it with my normal periods too. It's worrying me a bit and I was wondering if anyone could help me as I don't want to go to my male doctor about it. I don't really know what to do. It's not all the time. It comes and goes. Someone please help me. I might be over thinking but it's constantly in my head and I can't live my normal life thinking there could be something wrong! Help!!!!
