Hi! looking for some advice, currently been taking the “no break” contraceptive pill for around 6 months now to control my previously heavy bleeding. However, everyday for the past month and a half I have had none stop brown coloured period blood. Is this normal?

Hi possible breakthrough bleeding? Brown blood is usually older blood, missed miscarriage, or what happens earlier stages of pregnancy, if you have ruled out the last two it’s likely spotting if it continues maybe speak with your doctors or nurse.

I had that for about 10 weeks, they said it’s normal for 3 months but if it’s new then maybe ask your doctor
