Why am I having spotting/bleeding while taking Mircette birth control?

I have been taking it for about a month, and haven't had a normal period, just spotting/bleeding. Will my body take awhile to adjust?

    You may be like me with the birth control. I can't take it because I'll feel very sick and I'll start spotting. But the thing is, I missed a few days sometimes. Have you?

    Your body can take up even to a year to get used to it. Since it is a big hormonal change for your body it is not fully in your system until the first 2-3 months. Make sure you take it the way you are supposed to and be using protection until those months pass. Spotting will occur in the beginning and if you aren't taking it precisely. Don't worry it will be fine :)

    Yes, it will be normal for your first couple of months on oral birth control to spot or have "break though bleeding" while your body and it's hormones are adjusting to it. Keep on keeping on and it should sort itself out! Good luck!
