Dr. Daniel Kushner answered

Irregular bleeding: 1) take a pregnancy test. If negative, keep reading...
2) oral contraceptive pills are notorious for having the side effect of " spotting". This may be the cause of your symptoms and should resolve with use of the pill over time.
If, however it does not, please see your gyn and consider a tvus.
