Period before the placebo pills and after I am done with the placebo pills my period restarts. Is this normal? Should I try a different kind of birth control? I'm at a loss as to what to do. This is the 3rd type of birth control I've been on and I don't feel comfortable taking anything other then the pill because I am afraid of how my body will react. I have used the patch and it gave me pain in my hips and gave me head aches. If anyone has any suggestions as to what to do I would greatly appreciate it. This has been getting very frustrating for me considering last time I got my period I almost passed out from the blood loss because my period started early and then restarted again when I took my placebo pills.
