Normal: It is not uncommon to have light withdrawal bleeding after stopping oral contraception. It can last days to weeks - until next period or longer. See your clinician if bleeding becomes heavier or develop pain, and if you want to prevent pregnancy to discuss other contraceptive options vs restarting birth control pills. Take care!
