Loloestrin Fe And Random Bleeding

I've taken this pill for a full two months and today I will be on my 8th pill of my third month packet. My first month of this I had a random period in the middle of the month and at the end of the month I only had brown discharge. At the end of my second month packet, I had a 4 day long period, but it started on my second white pill, not after or between my two brown pills. Then 7 days after my period ended, I had random bleeding. It was all at once, about the size of a donut hole. It was not clumpy and was a dark reddish brown color. It seems like it will be done by tomorrow (random bleeding midday Friday, most likely will be gone by saturday). I did have intercourse in between the end of my period and now. Should I be worried about pregnancy or any health issues?

Hello, Meghan! How are you doing?

This is a hormonal based contraceptive, so it is normal to experience irregular bleeding for the first 3 months, until your body gets used to it. If it continues past that point, then you'll need to consult our doctor as it may not be the right one for you to take.

And checking with your doctor, anyway, wouldn't be a bad idea, just to be sure.

Pregnancy shouldn't be a concern, as long as you haven't missed any tablets.

Is there anything else I can help with?
