Hmm...sometimes. Mine was more like 2 AFs. I would have regular red bleeding for 3-5 days, then quit. Then on CD 11-17 (depending) I would start again and have another 3-5 days of bleeding. The type of blood was the same, although it was shorter than my usual, old AFs (7-11 days). Didn't have too much of the brownish blood during the spiro short AFs. It was definitely enough I had to use pads/tampons--they were AFs, just shorter & every 2 weeks. The blood thing sucked...couldn't even think of wearing white pants. LOL I kept on since I enjoyed the weight loss & clear skin. Also when mini-AF did show up, I felt more energetic & focused and since there were twice as many as usual...probably helped me to get through school in the end. Lord only knows how anemic I probably was. Quit spiro to ttc but still semi-wild AF--not quite as bad though (once every 3 weeks).
Bcp probably would've reigned it in, but I hate bcp and had IUD anyway.
