My last period was December 29th, and I have a normal 26 day cycle. I'm 23 in good health and just recently had my yearly pap and all went well, no std's and my Doc said that I am perfectly healthy. She ok'd me to go onto Ortho-Trycyclin (first time EVER)because my fiance and I are planning to wait a while before kids.
Heres the thing. Last real/full period was December 29th, on the 16th (day 19 of the pills) had brown discharge, i thought it was "break thru bleeding" then it briefly got a little thicker, so I just thought my period had come, but then it went back to just very very mild spotting. Each day, it hasn't been enough to soak a full pad/tampon. I'm now on the 7th day of "spotting"....
How normal is this???
Any advise on what could be going on?
My sis thinks that it could indicate an early miscarriage?

i recently went through the same thing sweetie. Calm down, take a breath. i had a son in august, and in Sept started birth control, and i also had the same thing happen, it lasted 2 weeks. i went to the gyno, and it is break through bleeding. miscarriage symptoms are periods that last really long and very heavy. With a lot of blood clots. i looked it up. and you might have some stomach pain with it. I think your ok, its just the pill.

It is probably due to the birth control pills. They are new to your body. Also some birth control pills are designed to give you shorter lighter periods.

That could be your hormones. I remember after my 2nd child was born I had started spotting and it was brown that scared me. Go to your doctor and talk to them.
