Hello,

If you are not taking the placebo pills and not having a cycle each month, it may have just been the time for your body to have a cycle and it wasn't from your drinking.

Most women on continuous OCP's (that don't take the period week pills) will have some bleeding by the third month of pills. You got lucky and made it to 5 months. You should discuss this with your doctor.

Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.

Take care

Regards,
Dr Stephanie Fugate, OB and GYN Specialist
