Period lasting longer since on the pill. is this normal & when will it end?

Options: If this is a new pill you may want to give it a few months. If this is a recurring problem then discuss other methods of contraception with your doctor. A Mirena (levonorgestrel) iud which eliminates your period in many cases might be an option you would like.
