DUB: Your hormonal shifts from being on and off birth control pills can cause unusual menstrual bleeding. No reason to be afraid, the fact you are bleeding makes pregnancy much less likely. There is plan B OTC and restarting your pills where you left off, using condoms for backup X 7 dys. When the bleeding stops, check first AM urine with a pregnancy test. If the bleeding continues, make a Dr. appt.
