What does Brown Spotting mean?
I have been on birth control since 17 and I am now 20. I take it everyday on time and haven't missed a pill this cycle. However, two weeks after my last full period I noticed some brown spotting, but only very light. It happened twice in one week and it hasn't happened again since. I am just curious as to what this could mean. I am sexually active but have taken b.c. religiously since I've been on it. I just recently started working out again and have become very stressed with school. Could this be a factor? this is the first time I have spotted since getting on birth control? Any help would be great.
Hey i am a virgin and for the first time for me to find a brown blood in me but not too much. everytime i get like this dark brown or blck when i am done with my period. Last month i didnt have my period which is normal sometime, but this is the first time for me to get the brown blood in the beginning of my period. I did a lot of search and they said that means woman is not a virgin anymore. is that right without having sex
If one has very bad sleeping patterns for several days and is extremely stressed about multiple things during a weather and time change, is it possible to have hormones so out of whack that you have brown spotting a week after your period? Is it just because hormones are acting crazy and old, brown blood is being discharged?
I've had a couple of experiences with what is called "break through bleeding".
About a month ago I screwed up the time at which I take my pills while I was on vacation. That resulted in some break through bleeding.
The other time is when my body got so used to the pill I was on that it became ineffecvite and I started to have the break through bleeding during each cycle. After the 2nd month of that I went back to the dr and got a higher dose.
I'd use a second form of birth control while you figure out what is going on. It could be from stress, but better safe then sorry.
