Hi guys, I’m concerned. I’ve been on the combined pill for around 3 months now but towards the end of the third packet i’ll get a lot of brown spotting like i’m on my period. I was told this is normal for the first few weeks but it keeps coming back and i don’t know why.

Completely normal! Bleeding is a side effect of the pill and can occur at any time no matter how long you’ve been on it. Brown blood is just oxidized.

Thank you so much!
