Take birth cintrol same time each day. noticee light bleeding today. habe had sex but never missed pill. why is there bleeding? hasnt happened before.

Couple possibilities: Sometimes sex can cause bleeding. Usually it's pretty light. How long have you been using your current pill? You may need one with slightly higher estrogen dose. Consider another month and then talking to your doc if it gets worse.
