Is Bleeding Normal while on Birth Control?
Posted: 06-30-06 09:42am

I been on Yasime birthcontrol for about a year. This menstrual cycle I took my last pill on Thursday June 22 and normally I get my period on the following Wednesday with a light bleed for one day then a little brownish and gone by the next day. This time a week later Thursday June 29th I only had dark brown staining or bleeding only now no blood at all on my pad when I wipe still very light brown stain and I start my pill today. Is this normal? My when my pill ended on Thursday, I went away with my husband on Friday, Sat and Sun and we had sex several times could I get pregnant?
Thank you

It is hard to say if the bleeding that you describe is normal or not because hormonal contraception can change menstrual manifestation. It doesn't seem likely that you are pregnant, but you can take a pregnancy test to be sure.
