Why am i bleeding when i'm on birth control pills?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Breakthrough: Bleeding on birth control pills happens on a regular basis. It is called breakthrough bleeding. Birth control pills can have varying amounts of hormone in them. It is a good idea to keep track of bcp that cause breakthrough bleeding. Talk to your doctor and see if switching to a pill with a different hormone content makes a difference.
