A member asked:
I switched birth control pills this pack. i am on the second week and now am having spotting. is this normal?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Yes: If you switched to a pill with different hormone dosages you can get some light spotting in the first few cycles. Keep taking the pill at the same time every day and this will usually resolve. If not see your doctor. If you have missed any pills you may need to check a pregnancy test.
