Brief Answer:
ovulation bleed

Detailed Answer:
Hello,
Thanks for the query to hcm ,
She got her withdrawal bleeding after 5-6 days of taking ipill indicating that she is not pregnant. The bleeding after 15 days of the stoppage of bleeding indicates a probable ovulation bleed which is in the form of spotting and lasts for 2-3 days only. This may be ovulation bleed.

Detailed Answer:
The withdrawal bleed which occurred post ipill allowed complete shedding of endometrium which lasted for 10 days . Now her fresh date of menses was the day of start of the withdrawal bleed.
This is a common side effect of ipill to cause irregular next 1-2 periods and they are likely to be initially heavy and then scanty, but this is mid cycle and spotting accompanied with mild pain in the ovarian region possibly indicating an ovulation bleed.
However if you wish to rule out pregnancy conclusively then you must get a serum beta hcg test done which if negative shall rule out pregnancy completely.

Detailed Answer:
no there is no such residues found on ultrasound for the ipill. It gets metabolised completely and sonography cannot detect the ipill in any ways.
