What Causes Continued Vaginal Bleeding While On Junel Fe?

hello, About 10 days ago i started taking junel fe (birth control pills). I was nearing the end of my period (day 6) when i began taking it- however I STILL have not stopped bleeding. My doctor said i may notoce spotting, but I have been needing to use light tampons in school everyday. How long will this last? I am 18 years old if this helps and generally have heavy periods (one reason why i wanted to start taking birth control)

Hello,

As of now, you can take drugs like tranexamic acid to control bleeding: If bleeding persists better to consult a gynaecologist and get evaluated.

Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.

Take care
