spiro/period questions

FOR WOMEN ONLY-- unless you wanna be grossed out


OK, so I'm just starting spiro..it's been a week, I'm NOT on bcp. I was on Diane 35 and loved the results on my skin, but i started getting too moody/no sex drive etc

my period's supposed to be here, lol, but it's not... instead i get this yucky (not the usual looking) spotting that's incredibly random, there once a day then goes away. my question is, does this get better? if i'm taking a low dosage 50 mg. isn't it bad if I stop getting my periods????? i don't mind it, but isn't that bad for your body? i'm confused.

also, if I'm taking a low dosage, do you guys think spiro will kill my sex drive the way diane 35 did?

ANY stories or info appreciated, thanks so much!

Did you just stop taking diane? I think that would be the most likely cause. Spiro makes your periods come closer together, so that shouldn't be the problem. If you don't think its Diane doing it I have no clue!
As far as sex drive, I noticed no difference on spiro alone (100mg/day). But whenever I'm on the pill (Yasmin, OTC lo, or Desogen) I have zero.

oh that's great about sex drive..YAY

no, I didn't JUST stop taking diane, I stopped three months ago. anyways, maybe I'm a little off on the dates of my period. i keep on waiting for it to come like a bomb's gonna drop or something. the spotting just threw me off, i guess.

so the spotting will get better?
