Best Answer

Most people won't have bleeding as a result of taking their pill an hour late. Unexpected spotting or bleeding can be a side effect of the Birth Control pill, particularly in the first three months of use or with progestin only pills (e.g. Micronor). Talk to your health care provider for advice specific to your situation.
