Re: Bleeding with Alesse

Hi Teresa-

Sorry to say I had the same problem with Alesse. I started taking it in February of this year and stopped after six months. I too had breakthrough bleeding and spotting. I started one period TWO HOURS after I took the last active pill!

I am now taking Yasmin. This is the first cycle of pills and I have had no breakthrough bleeding yet this month.

When I took Alesse, it seemed to help if I took it at the exact same time every day. If I missed a pill by an hour, sometimes I would have spotting or breakthrough bleeding.

Hope this helps. You can write me privately if you have more questions.

Genny
