What Causes Vaginal Bleeding When On Birth Control Pills?

I have been bleeding from my vagina for the past three days and I am starting to get worried about possibly being pregnant. Their has not been alot of blood in my underwear but like I said has gone on for 3 days. I take my birth control pills every day and haven't missed one since my last cycle. I am showing no other symptoms of pregnancy do you have any clue what this may be?

Dear member,
Thanks for writing to healthcare magic.
some patients on ultra lowdose pills have spotting in absence of pregnancy.
kindly do a pregnancy test.if negative then consult your doctor to switch to a pill with higher dose of estrogen.
