How can i stop breakthrough bleeding while on the pill constantly?
3 doctors weighed in across 2 answers
Take consistently: Be sure that you are up to date on your exam as cervical lesions and polyps which can be detected on exams can cause this. Missed pills and smoking are other causes of breakthrough bleeding. Consider a pregnancy test if any missed pills. Finally, talk to your doctor, you may need a change in the dose of your pill to stop the bleeding.
