Menstruation just stopped

[Basiie]

hello, I last saw the menstruation in September, then in February the 16th I went to see the doctor who gave me provera to drink for 10days. On the 27th February he gave me triphasil and I drinked one red pill on the 2nd march and started seeing red spots on the evening same day. now I am having ligtht bleeding. must I continue with provera or or stop? I and my husband are trying to have a baby, what must I do to conceive fast?

The last time I went to the doctor was the day he gave me the triphasil pills, it was the same day I received my hormones results because he took my blood to lab a week before. The results were normal, even the pap smear is normal and guess what, the doctor even told me that he don't know what to do because he tried provera and the blood results are possible, that when he gave me triphasil.

Is it possible for me to conceive during my ovulation days after menstruating? I wonder why the blood is not stopping because its been a week now. whats going to happen if I stop drinking the triphasil because I stopped 2 days after the menstruation started. Please help!

Hello,
The bleeding that you are having is breakthrough bleeding and you should not stop taking Triphasil without your doctor’s prescription. These are basically combination birth control pills and should be taken only under medical guidance.

It is very difficult to precisely confirm a diagnosis without examination and investigations and the answer is based on the medical information provided. For exact diagnosis, you are requested to consult your doctor. I sincerely hope that helps. Take care and please do keep me posted on how you are doing.
