Ok, so, I've been taking birth control pills FOREVER and now that i am over 50 continue to take them for HRT. I haven't had a period in years because i started taking them back to back without the placebo pills that constitute the last week of the pack. Well, at 8 weeks out from my show (I'm 4 weeks out now) i stopped taking them all together. to help reduce water retention. And....this morning I was entertaining a gentleman friend (er hmmm) and all of a sudden we both realize there was blood. Like i had started my period. WTF??? It wasn't real serious, but it was there. I guess i should go back to taking half a pill a day to see if that helps correct this problem? I have avoided this for years! Ugh!!
