Brown stain on microgynon 30. Need your suggestion
I am 37 years old, of normal weight and blood pressure and currently taking microgynon 30. I have been taking this medicine for almost 3 months without breaks as advised by my Doctor . The past few days I have noticed a brown stain when I wipe after urinating. This would have been the time my period was due had I not been on this medicine. Is this normal or should I see my Doctor again ?
