A member asked:

Switched birth control 3 tomes for breakthrough bleeding. never had irregular bleeding before pill. can i try another one or do i need another option?

A doctor has provided 1 answer

Irregular Bleeding: This is a common side effect especially when you first start the pill or when you are on a low dose pill. Yes you can try a different one and you need to give it 3-6 months. You need to work with your doctor to find the right one. At some point the pill may not be for you and you may need to use a non-hormonal form of birth control. Either way, discuss it with your doctor.
