At the beginning of last year, I started birth control to regulate my periods. I was bleeding 9 days and cramping so bad I'd see spots. For the first 6 months it was great, then I started having longer periods. When it got to 3 weeks long, I stopped and went to my doctor. s

She told me I was probably intolerant to the combination pill and put me on the mini pill. Now, 6 months into the mini pill, I'm bleeding for 7 days, off for 7 days and bleeding again for 7 more.

Has anyone else had a similar problem or have any suggestions to help?
