Hello Everyone, I'm new here, and I had a question I was hoping to get answered.

I have been on YAZ for about 7 months now. I seemed to adjust to it quite well. I think I spoted once after the 5 month of so for a few days. On February 12th, I forgot to take my pill. I didn't realize it until the next morning, and as soon as I did, I took it right away, then took my normal dose at 8:00pm as I do everynight.

So about a week ago, I noticed a bit of spotting. It wasn't too bad, so I figured I'd be done with it in a few days. It's been 11 days since I forgot, and I'm still spotting. It seems to have gotten a bit worse. It started with a dark color, and I just noticed it now to be a bit red in color. I have about 4 or so more days left of my pink pills, and then I will start the white placebo pills.

My question is this: Is this spotting normal after you miss one pill? Will I ever regulate again soon? I did talk to the Nurse and she said it was normal to spot, but for some reason I'm not so sure. I don't understand how it can change color. Could I possibly be getting my period early? Could that happen? I made an appt to see my doc this Friday. I've never missed a pill before until now. I'm just a bit concerned. I just want it to go away.

Any advice would be wonderful.

Thank You
