This is the end of the first week of my
third month of bc pills... I had bad
breakthrough bleeding the first month, but
after that things seemed to be completely
back to normal. My period even seemed
normal (except it was a darker color..
But thats ok right?) anyway, I have not
missed a pill and have taken them on time
except that now, im having break through
bleeding again. What does that mean? I
thought my body had adjusted or whatever
and why, because I have been taking them
at the right time, I havent missed one.
One time, I was about 20 minutes late but
thats it. What does this mean? Oh and
could it have anything to do with placebo
pills? Last week was my placebo pill week
during my period. I ended up taking those
pills a little bit later than I normal
take pills but I figured it wasnt a big
deal ( and when I say later I mean by an
hour or two.. And only on some) because I
thought they were just sugar pills...
That they didnt do anything and were just
a time keeper thing. Is that true? Oh im
on microgestin fe 1/20 by the way. So I
guess my questions are about the placebo
week, and if this new breaktrhough
bleeding is normal and when will it stop
or if I have done something wrong. Thanks
guys
oh and on a side note, this wouldnt mean
that I was pregnant right? Thanks

Breakthrough bleeding does not mean you
are pregnant.
Those sugar pills are just that, sugar
pills, it does not matter of and when you
take them. Most women prefer to take them
as usual to keep their brain geared uo for
normal pill use.
If you keep having spotting, you may need
to consider another pill, you should check
with your doctor.
