Hi,

I was given the pill to tri cycle and was experiencing breakthrough bleeding around the same time as yourself. I would suggest booking an appointment with your GP, who could maybe could change your pill - it may be to do with the amount of oestrogen your pill contains.

I was also had my cervix examined as its very common for the pill to cause changes in your cervix (nothing scary don't worry) which can cause bleeding.

I struggle to tri cycle my pill as I tend to get breakthrough bleeding and pain. I have resorted to putting up with the monthly break!

Hope this helps x
