A member asked:
If i am on camila birth control and i get a period does that mean that i am ovulating?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
No: On a Progesterone only birth control method like camila, there is not predictability to bleeding patterns, and regular cycle-like bleeding doesn't mean the pill isn't working. It is, however, important that you take it every day at close to the same time.
