Update to my previous blog...I stopped taking Jolivette on Sunday, September 7th after having begun bleeding (again). I had enough of this and was wondering if Jolivette was the cause. By Tuesday evening my bleeding had stopped. I was sick and tired of spending more time "having a period" than not having one. I thought it was supposed to help make my periods lighter, and perhaps it did (but only slightly), except when you bleed constantly for many consecutive days, who can tell? I did exactly as instructed and took my pill regularly, at the same time each day. I even set the alarm clock on my cell phone as a reminder. Jolivette didn't work for me so I will be looking into other options.
