A member asked:
When will withdrawal bleeding from placebos end, currently on 4th active pill of new birth control pack but period was really heavy this cycle also started lexapro last cycle

OCPS: The bleeding should stop by now under usual circumstances. Lexapro can be taken while being on OCPs. I hope you have been taking pills regularly. Otherwise, consult a physician if the problem persists.
