Is It Normal To Have Spotting While Taking Birth Control Pill?
I just started taking birth control last week. I'm still taking the normal pills (not the sugar pills, I still have 2 weeks until those) and I'm either starting my period or spotting. This is about the normal time I'm supposed to get my period, but based on my last period I shouldn't be getting it for another 12 days. Is it normal for this to happen?

Hello,
It is very normal to have few spottings during consumption of birth control pills.
It specifically happens in initial first few months of starting birth control pills.
These spottings would gradually disappear in few months time.
Thanks
