A member asked:

Yes: The effect of the birth control pill depends on maintaining the hormone level in your blood. That means you have to take the pill every day at the same time. If you miss a pill, are late taking it, or if something else changes that level (like if your pills were damaged ) , you may have 'breakthrough' bleeding.

Please discuss this with your Gynecologist who has your complete medical history. If you are not confident with your Doctor please see another for a second opinion.
