you spot because you are having a withdrawal bleed from the pill,not because you were ovulating ,but you could ovulate anytime now if you havent started taking the pill again,

you don't ovulate while you are on the pill.that's what the pill does to your body. may be it's breakthrough bleeding. but to be sure, take pregnancy test by the next two weeks. take it first thing in the morning (first pee) because the hcg levels are highest that time.

anyways, Breakthrough bleeding is bleeding while taking the active pills of oral contraceptives, or other hormonal contraceptives. The bleeding is usually light, often referred to as "spotting," though a few women may experience heavier bleeding. Breakthrough bleeding is most common when a woman first begins taking oral contraceptives, or changes from one particular oral contraceptive to another, though it is possible for breakthrough bleeding to happen at any time.

Many women find that the breakthrough bleeding ceases after one or two cycles. Breakthrough bleeding that does not resolve on its own is a common reason for women to switch to different Pill formulations, or to switch to a non-hormonal method of birth control.

Breakthrough bleeding is most commonly caused by an excessively thick endometrium (uterine lining). This is not a dangerous condition, though the unpredictable and often lengthy periods of bleeding are unpleasant for the woman. Breakthrough bleeding may also be caused by hormonal side effects of ovulation. If the Pill is not suppressing ovulation, the woman is at high risk of pregnancy. Breakthrough bleeding may also itself be a symptom of pregnancy (contraceptive failure).
