spotting on birth control

I am almost 21 and have been on birth control for five months.  I take it perfectly every night at 9:30.  I never miss any, and on May 25 I had sex with my boyfriend with no condom and he pulled out.  Today (June 2) I had spotting, my period isn't due until the 10th.  I never spotted before, any idea what's going on???

Although no form of birth control is 100 percent, you may just be spotting due to your body adjusting to the birth control. I dont think your pregnant because of the info you provided. Dont get worried and just wait for the 10th or so. Our bodies due many strange things quite often so dont put too muc thought into it.
