Higher Progesterone BCP's....??

Mschin · 05-01-2008, 11:33 AM

I am on Tri-cyclen lo and the Dr said that it has higher progesterone which is good for PCO'ers like me...but I've noticed that it gives me cramps and (TMI) but I have alot of goo-y stuff and blood when my AF comes around.
Its almost really stretchy....I never used to have this when I was on Marvelon.
My periods with Marvelon were pretty heavy where as the Tri-cyclen lo...my periods are pretty light and the blood just seems soo goo-y..
I also notice that I get the more occasional cystic pimple!
Luckily...I have't noticed any weight gain...maybe because I am trying to eat healthier...not sure

Is this normal??

Should I try something else?
