Question Hi! First I want to thank you for taking the time to answer my question. It is pretty simple I think. I became sexually active again a few months ago. I am 30. For the past two months I have started my regular period, it lasted a little longer than normal but nothing to be alarmed about I don't think. What I am worried about is that I started bleeding again a few days after I was off of my normal period. I have NO pain or discomfort, the blood is a brighter red than my normal period. Last month the 2nd go round of bleeding lasted 3 or 4 days. I just started for the second time this month. Is this because I have become sexually active again, is it hormones maybe?????? There is no pain and I feel good! What the heck is going on?
Answer Since you became sexually active, did you start or restart birth control pills? A little abnormal bleeding doesn't worry me as long as you are sure you aren't pregnant and that you get regular pap smears and pelvic exams.... a lot of times, it is the hormone changes from birth control pills that causes irreg bleeding. Hope this helps.
