Hi,
It's possible that the continuous bleeding you're experiencing is a side effect of stopping Tri-Sprintec, which is a combination birth control pill that contains two hormones, estrogen, and progestin. When you stop taking birth control pills, it can take some time for your body to readjust to the changes in hormone levels, which can result in irregular bleeding.
Another possible explanation for the continuous bleeding is a hormonal imbalance or a medical condition, such as a uterine fibroid or polyp, endometriosis, or an infection. It's also possible that the bleeding could be caused by a cervical or vaginal injury.
It's important to speak with your healthcare provider about your symptoms, as they can help determine the underlying cause and recommend the appropriate treatment. They may recommend further testing or imaging to rule out any underlying medical conditions. In some cases, hormonal therapy or other treatments may be necessary to stop the bleeding.
Take care. Hope I have answered your question. Let me know if I can assist you further.
