I started taking yasmin a month or so ago.
A couple weeks after taking the pill i
started spotting and though its nothing
that is flowing or anything like that, it
is annoying and not very attractive. I
started another pill right after the first
one, and the spotting has still continued.
I see real evidence.....after sexual
intercourse. It has happened twice now,
where i have had sex, and there's all this
stuff. But apart from that, no flowing.
I must also mention that due to work i am
extremely stressed, which may also be a
contributing factor.
I just want to know if this is
normal.....and when it will stop. Can
anyone advise me?

When you FIRST start taking birth control,
or switch to a new method, the first 1-2
months can be very spotty.
It is 100% normal to have breakthrough
bleeding and spotting while on the pill.
This is not due to stress, this would be
due to the hormones, and your body
adjusting to the balance.
