On Birth Control Pills. Have Mild Spotting. Any Other Safer Contraceptive Methods?
Hi I have had three months of continued pill taking. Three different contraceptive pills, lose train 20 was the last. I had a 7 day break and just had spotting, very light period. I ve then started a new packet for two days and felt I should stop taking it because of this and used other methods of contraception . I ve very concerned because I should be on day ten of taking my new packet but feel there may be something wrong.

Hello
You have been using oral contraceptive since three months and want to use other method of contraception as you got minimal period It is not abnormal to have minimal period once in a while but there is no fear of pregnancy as long as you are taking it regularly.If you want to switch over to other method you can start using condom or get IUCD inserted which will give you a protection for long period,
