Brief Answer:

Detailed Answer:
Hello
Thank You for contacting HCM. My name is Dr Muhammad Ali Rauf & i will look into your problem.
I have gone through your query and would try to help you in the best possible way. I understood from your statement that you took contraceptive pill and after 3 days there was bleeding. If i understood correctly then this bleeding could indicate menses bleeding(it may occur again due to pill). When birth pill is taken then it alters normal hormonal levels. As a result bleeding occurs and cycle may also gets disturbed. It will resolve itself and you need not to worry.
Hope I have answered your query. If you have any further questions I will be happy to help if not then don't forget to close the discussion and rate it.
Wishing you good health !!
