18 years old.
i've been on birth control for about two years now. i'm on ortho tri cyclen lo. well i've never had problems with my period since i've been on this. i got my period when i was suppose to and i had no spotting inbetween. well just a couple days ago i had a little brown disharge on my underwear and i didn't think anything of it really and then it got worse and worse and it was like i had my period. but i just had it not even two weeks ago? it's like red, but not that heavy but still like i have to wear a tampon. this has been going on for three days or so now. i don't know why this would happen? i got really horny last weekend and i usually dont and i'm not sexually active but i highly doubt getting horny would cause this to happen. i haven't missed a day or anything. does anyone know why this would happen or any possible causes? i am clueless, it came out of the blue! thanks

most likely this has something to do with the birth control that you are on. I don't know too much about tri cyclen, but most affect your hormones. Just because this condition hasn't happened to you before doesn't mean it can't. Your body is always changing. It can mean so many things. I would suggest going to your gynecologist and state what your situation is and let them guide you to an informed solution. I hope I helped.
Good luck,
