Why am i experiencing brown discharge after taking birth control and how do i get it to stop?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Birth control : It is normal to have some spotting when you start birth control. Just keep taking your pills on time. It should improve after a few packs of pills as long as you don't miss any pills.
