Breakthrough bleeding?

[kmcmizzle]

Hello!

I have been on the same birth control for almost three full months now.

I am sexually active with my significant other but we ALWAYS use condoms, and to our knowledge, none of them have broke. I'm paranoid so I check each time.

My period is due next week when I am on the inactive pills. However, last week I experienced some cramping and yesterday I randomly started bleeding a little. It wasn't a lot, but it did happen. Should I be concerned or is this perfectly normal on birth control?

I should also note that about a month, month and a half ago, I took plan b (while on BC, condom did break then and I'm a worrywart) however, I have had a period since them. I'm just not sure if this could still be my plan b affecting me.

Hi Kmcmizzle,

Some people may experience spotting between cycles while on the pill, so that may have been what you experienced last week
