You are most likely experiencing breakthrough bleeding. Breakthrough bleeding may seem like your period, and it can last for as long as a period, however it is not.Breakthrough bleeding usually happens before you actually get your period as expected. This annoying side effect that may happen when you first begin the pill, and it can last up to 3 months. If you continue to have breakthrough bleeding after 3 months, you should visit your physician. Excessive breakthrough bleeding can be a sign that you need a higher dosage of Birth Control to keep you protected from pregnancy. Also, to avoid breakthrough bleeding after the 3 months of possible side effects, be sure to take your birth control everyday and at the same time everyday. If you do not properly take your birth control as directed, you may also experience breakthrough bleeding.
