Low dose bcp's: Low does birth control pills frequently provide only a brown discharge or spotting at the end of the cycle to notify the user when to start the next pack of pills. continue your daily/regular use of the pill. If you missed any pills, were sexually active, or were late taking the pill in the previous pack, run a pregnancy test
