Started higher bc due to spotting. first 2mo on new pill minimal spotting. 3rd month now and spotting/btb half the month. always take on time. ???
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Evaluation: Have your doctor do a specialized sonogram called a sonohystogram or a diagnostic hysteroscopy. Persistent mid cycle bleeding often is caused by small endometrial polyps which can be surgically removed. A Mirena (levonorgestrel) IUD may work better than oral contraceptives.
