I have been taking the tablets religiously, and what shows up 4 days before I am due to go away?? You got it!!!!!!!!!. The worse thing is it isn't like one of my regular periods, heavy bleed for 2 days, then tapers off to almost nothing for the next 3 days. This one is just enough to soil my underwear i.e. spotting I SO KNEW THIS WAS GOING TO HAPPEN
