Off topic but more comfortable with you ladies!

Okay ladies, I know this isn't on topic but I feel like I know you ladies better than anyone else and am most comfortable with you guys.  I just noticed today that I am spotting for some reason and have no idea why.  My boyfriend and I have sex every weekend when he is home so now I'm worried it could be implantation bleeding but I'm on bc.  My last period started September 29th so it isn't do for about another 2 weeks, so this can't be from my period.  Do you ladies have any idea??

My spotting has turned into like a period for me and my back is just acheing and my period isn't due for like 9-10 more days.  I haven't been taking them regularly because a whole pill made me throw up so I stopped taking it until I talked to my doctor then he put me on half and then I still didn't feel great with that and went off again, so I've been off of them for like 2 days now.  I notice it has helped because since I got off, I cry like crazy and just feel so crappy about myself...

There are some not so good side affects & some really bad withdrawl symtoms. The withdrawls can even occur when taken off "properly" by a Dr. I accidently lost my meds and skipped a couple days until I found them & trust me not good, the worst ~for me~ was what the pharmacist said were called brain zaps & this was after just 2 missed doses I had thoses zaps randomly through my body & numerous other things. Also whether its true or just part of an excuse myhusband & I are separated right now & he says that when I started on that I became a different person & he doesn't like who I became & I know the side effects do include a lot of bad things inculing mood changes etc so I imagine it could probably affect your bc too.

Not to be nosy but may I ask why you started Cymbalta? I ask because I am on it for Nerve pain & I had a spine stimulater impanted to hopefully be able to get off Cymbalta. If you can you might want to do some research about it. I found out some nasty things about it after it was too late that it if I had I would not have gone on it. Just a heads up it is possible this is whats causing you're spotting I have no idea how it works with bc I have an IUD. Good luck I hope everythings ok.

You're probaby just spotting.  It took me a couple tries before I found the right bc pills.  I seemed to spot on every pill I was on.  Eventually I found the right ones.  You haven't been on them that long either, your body is probably still adjusting to them.

I started them in June.  I just started on Cymbolta a few weeks ago, that may have something to do with it... I don't know.
