Yes. im 21 years old i been bleeding since febuary my doctor has not did nothing bout it..... can i take over the counter birth control n be safe?

Need Rx: BCP can be used to regulate periods, but at this time, the only OTC brith control pills in the US are the morning after pill, and they can also cause irregular periods. It is advised that you have an exam, find the cause of the persistent bleeding (?? infection, abn thyroid, need PAP) and be counseled on risk of BCP, as they can increase BP and blood clots in some peiople. I wish you well.
