A member asked:

Bleed four days after takin next choice, while on bc in acctive week one, is this bad, is my birth control still effective, do i continue to take it?

A doctor has provided 1 answer

Finish the pack: I would finish your birth control pack and check a pregnancy test during your period week. The bleeding is likely a result of using the Next Choice
