Q: Birth Control Pills

Is it normal to be on birth control pills for over 3 weeks and still bleed every single day. I am new to birth control pills so I don't know if it is normal.

spotting during the first month is completely normal, your body is just adjusting to the horomones..it sucks yes but after the first month the spotting should subside...thats how it was when i first started and the gyno told me I probably would spot the first month..hope i helped

If it doesn't go away at all within the next month then ask your doctor about switching pills.

Breakthrough bleeding is very common, but if it doesn't let up at all by the 2 month mark, then you probably need to be on a different pill. Just let your doctor know and they will likely know a better pill for you.
