Question
I have been off birthcontrol since Feb. My periods have been normal up until the last month
For the last 4 weeks I have been having my period. My dr put me on progesterone for 10 days. It is day 7 and I am still bleeding and today I started having blurred vision. I am 39 and don't know what's going on.

Answer
Dear Monica,

I am not sure what is going on either but your body does not like something and is trying to tell you something is not right so I think you need to go back and see your doctor and let them know what is happening.

God Bless
