Vaginal bleeding ?'s: Taking extra bcp's will cause withdrawal bleeding, as the amount of estrogen is increased, and then resuming your regular one a day active pill will result in a sudden decrease in estrogen, causing the light bleeding. If this continues, see your gyn for an exam, as cervical irritation can also cause light bleeding.
