Help! Birth control?! Going from depo issues to pills?
I went on birth control for the first time July with depo. It totally scewed me up. Long, nasty periods but always a month apart while it was active.
I was due for my second in October, but I hated it and let it expire.
I continously bled for the most part all the way up until a few weeks ago!
The last month I've gotten a couple days of bleeding every couple weeks, and the last time was last week and it was just spotting and I don't know if it's gonna happen again or if it's leaving my system.
I have spoken to my DR, she said its the side effects of depo and she says the pill will get me back on track, but I had to work and didn't have time to discuss the starting details with her.
*Do you just start or is it like at the begining or end of your period?
(The last date I can say for sure my period started was July 24, 2006).
*It takes a full cycle to get it into full effect?
*Does the pill have the same side effects, like bleeding all the time?
Thanks much!
My doctor and other who've been on depo confirm that my bleeding... now spotting can be a hassle of depo.
My question is how can I start the pill when I'm not even sure when my real periods are?

You are supposed to take it at the end of your period, It does take a full cycle to be effective, and no you shouldn't be bleeding or spotting except for your period.
