    Started the pill and now the bleeding won't stop

    I'm 16, I started my pill on my first day of bleeding. It was a Sunday and on my brand of pill (levlen ED) the Sunday pill in the red section is a hormone pill not a sugar pill. That was almost two weeks ago and I'm still bleeding, it's not much just a little and its brown rather than red. I still have to wear pads everyday and it's beginning to both annoy and worry me.

    Is it just the new hormones in my body? Please help.

    It does take some time for your body to adjust to the hormones, but, bleeding for two weeks, while on the pill... I'd be at least calling the Dr's office and talking to a nurse.

      Your body will definately need time to adjust but as lana said above...I'd be calling the doc and speak to a nurse

            I called my doctor today. She told me it was a natural reaction and that it would take three to four cycles to settle into a regular pattern and until it does I should keep using other methods of contraception too. I'm so glad, although having to worry about bleeding for the rest of summer isn't going to be much fun.

            Thanks for your help guys :-)
