break through bleeding

Hi,

I have been on glucophage XR 1500mg for about 2 years, before that regular glucophage for two years, and have had very (for me regular) periods of about every 40 days. About 3 months ago my doctor added spiro (I was phased in, 25mg to start, now I'm up to 100mg per day), to combat the excess hair every where I don't want it. For the last month and 1/2 I've been having heavy spotting - light periods every 10- 12 days. I experience my usual pms, slight cramping, etc., then I have this weird period - on again, off again. It starts out light, a half a day of "chunky" (excuse my graphic descriptions) and then yucky brownish stuff for two or three more days. I have an appointment with my gyn on monday (my RE is inconvenient to see, being 45 to 90 minutes away, depending on traffic).

My question is, could the spiro be messing up my cycle, or is there something else I should be worried about. FYI, I'm 38, I've had three kids and had a tubal ligation with the last one 31/2 years ago.

Thanks,

Cyrilla
