A member asked:
Is it normal to have more brownish black blood then fresh blood on your period after getting back on birth control? i've also had spotting.
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Yes: doesnt sound terribly worrisome. I'd wait a few weeks, even a few cycles before getting to your doctor. Unless, of course, the period is longer, more clotting or spotting, etc. most likely it will normalize over a few cycles.
