Had brown bleeding for over a year, from bc. dr gave me .5mg of estridonol how fast does this work to reduce bleeding? it's for 21 days

May not : Break through bleeding on birth control is very common. Supplemental Estrogen is one of the many possible solutions. I have not seen this work very often. It's worth trying but if it fails consider switching to Mirena (levonorgestrel) or Skyla. Works great
