an early period?

Former Member

im not due to take my 7 day break of my pill til a week tomo, and when i do, i usually come on on the friday. however, friday just gone i came on!!
this happened last month. ive been ill recently (not sick or diarrhoea tho, so wont have effected my pill), feeling nauseous, so could this have caused it??
i cant get a doctors appointment for 4 days yet+our doctors are horrible anyway, so would it be save to treat this as my 7 day break, then on tomo nite start a brand new pill packet? Will that sort my body out?
Also, another thing is that ive had no irritability, stomach ache, or mood swings that i normally get 2 to 3 days before my period - is this connected to my early cycle???
Thanx

I'm guessing you take the combined pill, no its not normal to bleed early, see your gp. Any chance of being pregnant?

Former Member

no, i was tested 2 months ago for this+it was negative, and i havent had sex since

Former Member

i suggest youi go see you doc still, you shouldnt be bleeding early.

Former Member

im in exactly the same position. I havent even finished taking the whole of the pack, and Im already bleeding. I've ran packs together loads of times before, although normally only 2 packs, but I've ran 3 packs together this time. Could it just be cos ive taken an extra pack, without a break??

might just be a bit of spotting. no need to be overly concerned i shouldn't think. though if you're worried, go and see your gp.

different pill but when on the mini pill i was spotting & told it was a sign it wasn't working properly so its worth asking a professional.

AS i have already said numerous times, you should see you gp about it as they advise when bleeding when you shouldn't be.
Your choice if you follow that advice.
