A member asked:

If i get pregnant while on contraceptive and did not know so i completed the pack of pills would i have bleeding of any sort when my period is due?

A doctor has provided 1 answer

Contraception: Well if you are pregnant you should not have any bleeding when your period was due. But some spotting in early pregnancy can occur and not be related to a miscarriage. Confused? You should see your doctor.
