A member asked:
If i get a withdrawal bleed on the birth control pill during placebo week is that a confirmation of the absence of pregnancy?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
In short, yes: Any bleeding, in the appropriate time course and amount should be considered physiologically within normal limits. Any heavy bleeding that is at an unusual time should be investigated by your OB -Gyne
