Unscheduled bleeding is common in the first three months of the pill. It gets better with time. Continue taking the pill as scheduled regardless of bleeding.

If you have been on birth control for a month and a half Started bleeding halfway through your second pack of pills Is this normal?
No. either you haven't been taking the pills regularly enough, or they are too weak for you.
You have been on Ortho Tricyclen for a few years and got breakthrough bleeding this month you missed two pills is that your period how long does it typically last?
If you missed tow pills and had breakthrough bleeding, resuming your pills should stop the bleeding. However, since you missed two pills you are not protected this month, so use a backup method of birth control.
Should I take my orange birth control pills if I've already bled this month not on them?
You should take your birth control pills in order and on schedule regardless of bleeding. If you have questions about your bleeding, call the prescriber, but keep taking the pills.
What causes you to bleed if missed green pills?
In some birth control brands, the green pills are active pills and should not be skipped. If you do, you might have breakthrough bleeding as well as increased risk of pregnancy. In other brands, the green pills are placebos (sugar pills or reminder pills) and can be skipped. Talk to your pharmacist or health care provider to get information specific to your brand of birth control pills.
If you skip the sugar pills in your birth control pack when will you get your period the following month?
Ideally, your withdrawal bleeding will happen when you take the placebos next, but some women will have unscheduled bleeding or spotting after skipping a period by taking active pills continuously. It's a bit unpredictable.
Your period started a day after you started your new pack of pills while trying to skip your period for the month Should you keep taking the new pack anyway?
YES! Continue with the active pills, stopping after you have begun a new pack is not the answer!What you are experiencing is break through bleeding. If you did not take any placebo pills, but went right to the new packet of active pills - you cannot be experiencing withdrawal bleeding - which is associated with the 7 days of inactive pills. This bleeding will more than likely only last a couple days.Breakthrough bleeding is most common in the first 3 to 6 months, if you continue to have breakthrough bleeding consult with your OB/GYN.If you are taking mini-pills (AKA POP or *"Progestin only Pills") call your provider as break through bleeding can mean you are ovulating.*generic name: levonorgestrel
Why does missing birth control pills cause bleeding?
When taking birth control pills the bleeding you get each month is withdrawal bleeding and not a "regular" period that comes on its own. So when you miss a few pills the withdrawal from them starts up the bleeding. The steady hormones in the pill keep the uterine lining thin. When you skip the pill for a few days, the pill hormone levels go way down (it takes the body about 24 hrs to eliminate the hormones in one pill). This withdrawal of pill hormones destabilizes the uterine lining and you get spotting/bleeding [thus, the name: withdrawal bleeding].
How far along are you if a pregnancy test was positive and you're on birth control pills and your last real period was a month ago but you had a little bleeding a couple of weeks ago?
That little bleeding was probably implantation bleeding, I would guess you are about 4 weeks pregnant. ~pawsalmighty
Can i takae my this month pills even i don't have my period yet im in one week off my pills now and next pack should start tomorrow?
Yes, you should definitely start your next pack on schedule regardless of bleeding or the absence of bleeding. Take a pregnancy test if there's a chance of pregnancy.
Can starting birth control cause two periods in one month?
It's possible that breakthrough bleeding could occur as result of taking birth control pills.
If you miss the last 2 birth control pills in your pack one month but take every pill right the next month does delayed bleeding mean you are more likely to get pregnant on the pill during the 3rd mo?
I was especially wondering if you could get pregnant under these circumstances if you started the pill a day early in the third month and took a double dose on the second day.
If you stop your pills the first day on the second week of pills when should you start your period?
sometimes it may come on time or it may take a month or more it depends on your body!
