sooooo um
 i've been on birth control for about 6 months. it made my period really nice and light. except this month, it's back to the normal flow when i wasn't on bc. what the hell?! i want my lighter periods back! so anyways, has this happened to anybody else or am i destined to be a freak of nature? |

obviously, the birth control affected your period. bc usually does that and by getting off it, your period should have changed too.
some girls take bc to regulate and ease the symptoms of their periods. if you want your lighter flow back, you should get back on your bc. |

^ I think she's still on BC.
You're body might have adjusted. What you may want to do is ask your doctor for a prescription that has more estrogen. |

"except this month, it's back to the normal flow when i wasn't on bc." maybe it's a mistype. so, if that's the case, then i agree with superstitious. |

^ XD it's worded oddly.
If you are not on BC, pick column A, if you are, pick column B =) |

oh yeah sorry i worded it really badly...
i meant my period is now the same as if i wasn't on bc. i'm still on bc now. sorry for the confusion! sigh i get my prescriptions at college (so my parents won't know) and i'm home for the summer now. i don't want to see a doctor here about it and it's not too big of an issue to go to planned parenthood. no cramps or anything, so that's good. i'm just irritated, haha. i've been so spoiled for the past 6 months. |
