Finished Birth Control Pack. Started Cramping And Spotting. Is It Normal To Skip Periods While On The Birth Control Pill?
I recently finished my birth control pack (the active days). I never take the last week because theyre just placebos, and i usually get my period 3 days after i stop the active pills. so say fridays my last active day then by monday usually. now its thursday and nothing. Ive have cramping, and today just some spotting. Is it normal to skip periods while on the birth control pill? so far (for a year) its been pretty consistent.

Hello mam, thanks for trusting health care magic.
In my opinion do your urine pregnancy test which if negative get a pelvic ultrasonography and b HCG testing because it can be an early pregnancy or worse ectopic tubal pregnancy and then visit a gynecologist with reports
In case you have further questions you can consult me on health care magic forum and i will be happy to help
Take care and wish you all the best.
