I've just started my 3rd pack of yaz bcp, i have skipped the placebo pills for the past 2 packs and am getting a brown mucus discharge, is this normal?

Breakthrough bleed: 15% of patients starting birth control pills may experience spotting, called breakthrough bleeding. This nuance bleeding will stop in most cases. If it persists, see your doctor to get a new pill.
