Is It Normal To Bleed After Taking Beyaz?

I recently started taking the birth control Beyaz. I have been bleeding for 15 days. It is heavy enough to require wearing a pad. I have also been nauseous and have had cramps. I have been religious about taking the pills on time and every day. I have a half marathon coming up, so I would really like to be period free for that race! Is this normal?

Hi,
Though it is common during the initial months of any birth control pill for menstrual irregularities to happen, I would ask you to see a specialist since you have had persistent bleeding for the past fortnight. Most often, such bleeding is a consequence of the altered hormonal milieu induced by the pill intake. Coagulation profiles and blood work is necessary to exclude any vascular factors secondary to the pill. You may need styptics and additional hormones to control the bleeding. Hope this helps.
