Keep going: It's normal to have irregular bleeding when you first start birth control- keep taking your pill at the same time each day. If it doesn't get better you may want to consider switching pill types.

Bleeding on BCP: Frequently especially with the new low dose birth control pills abnormal bleeding occurs. If you periods have been normal till now, i suggest that you continue your current bcp's. Most likely this problem will resolve within 3 cycles. If it continues see your gynecologist.
