It wasn't embarrassing exactly, but I did feel bad about it.
I switched to a new bc pill a few months ago, adn for a while things were fine and dandy, but back at the end of march, I started bleeding and just didn't stop. Most of the time I didn't bleed much, and I didn't really let it get in the way of my sex life. I did notice that after we had sex, when I would go to the bathroom to pee, I would leak a blood-and-semen mixture out of my vagina into the toilet, sometimes a fair bit of it, pretty brightly colored. But it usually stayed contained till I was able to go to the bathroom.
Well, last week, we had just had sex, he was sitting on the couch and I was straddling him, and when I got up off of him and his penis slipped out of me, followed by a pretty good gush of bloody semen that landed all over his stomach. I apologized profusely and ran to get some tissues. He was really understanding about it, just kissed me and told me he was worried about me bleeding so much. That was the final straw, I had already switched my prescription back to microgestin, but still had a week and a half left of the mononessa. At the end of that week, I threw out the last week of the mononessa and went straight back onto the microgestin (I take bc continuously, no periods, because of endometriosis). The bleeding is already almost down to nothing, no more bloody mess after sex, woo-hoo!
