Question
Hi my name is Jessica,
I switched birth control pills and when I got my period and it was really light and only lasted about 3 days.  Is this normal?

<<Hi Jessica,
First of all, I want to let you know that I'm not a medical doctor and I suggest you consult your physician. Yes, I think that your switching pills could be a cause of this. Why did you switch pills and have you had any side effects of any kind of birth control pills? Please email me at DCHERYL51@yahoo.com if you have any further questions or information that could help me advise you.
