Hey guys. I have been experiencing some pretty heavy breakthrough bleeding (like bleed through my tampons heavy) for the last 3 days. I have one active pill left tomorrow, and then I start my break week. If I continue bleeding through my break week, would that be considered my withdrawal bleed??? If the bleeding just never stopped? 💊🍭🍭🍭🍭🍭🍭🍭💊💊💊💊💊💊💊💊💊💊💊💊💊💊💊💊💊💊💊💊 Brand: Hailey FE 1/20

More bleeding may happen because of the withdrawal, but having a withdrawal bleed doesn’t really mean anything so even if some more bleeding does occur because of the withdrawal/break week it doesn’t really matter why it’s happened if that makes sense? Xx

Bleeding during active pills is breakthrough bleeding, bleeding during your break is a withdrawal bleed. It doesn’t matter when it started x

@ilovebirthco It does make sense! I just rely on my withdrawal bleed as an anxiety reliever (like many others lol) even though I’m a perfect user. So I was a bit confused as to if bleeding that continued past the breakthrough now would be considered withdrawal or not.

(i also know bleeding means almost nothing on birth control anyway.. but yanno lol.)
