Increase EE: You experience breakthrough bleeding, because the ethinylestradiol (EE) amount of 20 microgram in drospirenone may be too little for you. If this happens every cycle for several cycles, you may want to try a birth control pill with 0.03 mg or 0.035 mg of EE.

Keep taking them: Some spotting is common on the first few packages. Keep taking them at the same time every day and it should get better. The other things to consider are the possibility of chlamydia which can cause break through bleeding on pills or abnormal cervical cells. Be sure you are up to date on your Pap smear and, if there is any question and the spotting continues, get tested for STDs. Hope this helps
