I'm on postoval(2nd month).i took them without skipping a dose.orange pills started today.why would i be bleeding since having intercourse today?(>3h)

Bleeding on oral bc: A common cause of bleeding before such is due (orange pills for one day only) is not taking the low dose types of oral bc regularly. Being more than one hour off of the previous day's pill can cause withdrawal bleeding. It is better to take a low dose type of bcp at the same time every evening until time for the "orange pill" to begin. Sex can irritate the cervical tip, causing bleeding also.
