Ovulation spotting can sometimes occur midway through your cycle, infections can cause spotting, and implantation bleeding. Also i have had this and i believe it was because my hormones were so messed up.

While on the pill you do not have a true period, you have withdrawal bleeding. One of the actions of the pill is that the lining of the uterus does not become as thick as if you were not taking the pill. Therefore you do not have as much to lose so your withdrawal bleed may only be spotting.

depends on how good you are at taking the pill. even if youre constantly taking it there is always a possibility. for some reason these amazing scientists cant produce anything that is 100% effective these days. best to check. its unlikely though. good luck =]
