Hi,
Welcome to ehealthforum,
It is not normal to have persistent bleeding while being on hormonal contraceptive pills. You should consider visiting a gynecologist/obstetrician for further evaluation to look for cause for the prolonged and persistent bleeding. Stop with the pill use. Discuss about alternate birth control measures to suit you and your needs.
Take care.
