I was going 14-16 months between periods. When I was put on the bcp, I was getting my period like once a month like I should and it was normal, comes at the same time every month.
The last 2 months, I have had my period when it should come and when I am done, I go about a week and then get it again for a week but very light.
Is there something wrong?

Hey Navi,
I have a question for you. You're on 200mg of Spiro. Does your dr. get regular test of yours for taking Spiro to check your Potassium level? If it goes up or not? I wanted to go onto 200mg of Spiro. Im on 100mg right now. She said i culd go up to 150mg. I still havent gne up. How has Spiro helped you?
Thanking You,
Turmoil. |

She then changed it and I no longer had that promblem. As Turmoil stated you might want to also have your doctor check your potassium level.
