A member asked:
Brownish discharge and bleeding between cycles on birth control. what is wrong?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Bleeding: That kind of bleeding can be very normal. Sometimes the inner lining of the uterus breaks down because it is so thin from being on the pills. Othertimes, it might be due to cervical bleeding after intercourse. It could also be due to a cervical infection. If it continues, see your doctor.
