A member asked:

I'm 35. i've been on the pill for 9mo continiously. now sex is painful and i've been bleeding for 1mo. dr. prescribed premarin (conjugated estrogens). no help. what to do?

A doctor has provided 1 answer

Bleeding on OCP's: Painful sex can arise from infection, but bleeding on oral bcp's is usually from not having taken the pill punctually. The bleeding comes from irregular estrogen levels, and is because the lining of the womb breaks down as a result. Premarin (conjugated estrogens) will not stop the bleeding, only accentuate it. Stop both, and see your healthcare provider if pain continues.
