A member asked:
Been bleeding/spotting for 11 days straight while on active pills, and now on 2 days of inactive pills (gildess fe 1/20). this is my third pack of bc.

New BC...: New BC can cause intermittent or continuous spotting the first couple of months. It usually normalizes and your period starts getting regular. However, if the irregularity persists and you start developing profuse bleeding then it is time to discuss it with your GYN provider and consider options.
