For the past 2 years, I have been on Ortho Tri-Cyclen (generic) without any problems. Over the past 4 months, I have had a migraine headache during my period - treated with Imitrex and sleep. Sometimes my fiance and I go weeks without having sex. This past month, we had sex once (about 10 days ago I think) and my period is due to start today (Monday). Late last week, I started to have a brownish discharge. Since, the brown has subsided and there has been a little pinkish discharge, but for the most part has stopped. Today, I am experiencing normal cramping (very minimal)...but I still have not started my period. Has anyone had any side effects of the pill and Imitrex that I should be worried about. I have not missed or been late on any pills and I'm assuming I have not ovulated, which means I can't be pregnant - at least I think that is the case. I have never had the brownish discharge prior to my period, which I have read is normal. Anyone know if this is a side effect of the Imitrex or migraines? I'm a little worried (but trying not to bed)...so any help would be greatly appreciated! THANKS!
