The pills are designed to be taken as prescribed. To do otherwise risks that you will get pregnant (you are shorting yourself on the amount of hormone you are taking and messing up the menstrual cycle) or other problems. Why not just take the whole prescription??

Is bleeding after birth control harmful?

Hello. No bleeding after using birth control isn't harmful hun. If you have stopped birth control and are bleeding, this is perfectly normal and is happening because your experiencing break through bleeding from the withdrawal of the pill. If you are bleeding while on birth control and have missed some pills - then this is why your bleeding. Dont miss any pills and you wont bleed. If you are bleeding while on birth control and are taking the pills correctly and haven't missed any, then this is most likely due to the doseage of the pill not being high enough. See your doctor for a change of pill or increase in doseage. Take care!
