Hello,
The bleeding that you are having is due to hormonal imbalance caused by the pills and should get better in 3 months. If the symptoms persist even after three months of birth control start then you have to get the birth control changed.

It is very difficult to precisely confirm a diagnosis without examination and investigations and the answer is based on the medical information provided. For exact diagnosis, you are requested to consult your doctor. I sincerely hope that helps. Take care and please do keep me posted on how you are doing.
