I am 22 & on birth control pills (yaz) and have been for over a year. i have brown discharge mostly when i wipe. is this normal? what should i do?

Common: This type of bleeding/discharge is common on the pill. The pill is still effective and this is more of a nuisance than a problem. The two options are to stay on this pill and see if it resolves or change pills.
