Birth control pills
I was taking yaz birth control for 4 years for clearing up my acne I was taking two months of pills and 5 days off for a period. I started spotting a lot a few months ago and continuously getting my period every 10 days so my doctor prescribed me a new pill called marvelon and said the higher dosage would stop the spotting. I started taking marvelon last month and have started spotting again after 4 weeks and am supposed to have no period for 3 months. Do I need an even higher dosage pill?

No don't take any pill stop all treatment may be it will take time, after stopping your period may be heavy but automatically it will control if you want to control the bleeding take another tablet not hormones.
