I've been taking lo estrin for 3 yrs and a yr and a half ago i stopped having a period. a few days ago i started getting bad cramps and a heavy flow?

You need to see: Your gyn for an exam , blood work and an ultrasound as u can start back having periods on that pill but it sholdl not be heavy and after you have been evaluated you may want to switch to loloestrin it has less estrogen 10 mcg and u will probably stop having periods again assuming nothing strange was found on us or blood work or exam, loloestrin is my #1 pill i prescribe.
