Hi I am 24 and have been taking the pill for 7 years for severe period pain. The pain was reduced significantly but I still needed some pain relief plus hot water bottle.About 5 months ago I went to see a Gynacologist as the pain was not being controlled as well even with quite strong painkillers. She advised that I may have endometriosis but it was decided not to do a laproscopic investigation because of my age and the number of younger women who represent to her within 12 months of an investigation with severe pain again. She suggested that I back-to-back the Pill which would prevent bleeding and therefore prevent pain. She suggested that I stop when I had a break through bleed then wait until I had one period before starting the back-to-back again. I did this with 6 packs and all seemed ok. I began the back to back again and 5 days after starting my 3rd pack I started some spotting and minor pain. That was one week ago and i still have some pain(controlled with paracetemol) and bleeding is a little heavier. I have an appointment with the Gynie in 3 weeks but want to know if I should stop the Pill or keep on it until I see her? Many thanks, Corinne
