How can you tell the difference between withdrawal bleeding and ovulation bleeding?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Withdrawal bleeding : Occurs when you are on hormonal birth control and you are in the placebo or no hormone week. You don't ovulate while on hormonal birth control, that is the purpose of the birth control. If not on hormonal birth control, you will have a normal ovulatory and hormonal cycle. Be well.
