I have been on birth control for about 8 months. Just recently I took a month break and then started taking the pills again. Since I have been taking the pills I have been bleeding like a really light period which then turned to a brownish discharge. Does any one know whats going on? Please help im very confused and this is starting to depress me.

It is break thru bleeding and it is very common. It should go away within a few months once your body adjusts to being on the hormones again.
