I'm on birth control pills and my doctor has stopped my periods all together. I only take the first three weeks of the pack.

After that I start a new pack. Why would I be having light bleeding? Haven't had intercourse in a week.

When I was on the pill continuously I used to get spotting and that's pretty normal. Is that the kind of light bleeding you're having? - for me it was literally a one-panty-liner a day thing, nothing heavier.

Not what you're looking for?
