Problem with the pill

hey, ive bin on the pill for nearly a year now, pretty much the entire year, throughout the month when im taking the pill, i have a red/brown discharge, its really annoying. Ive bin to the GUM clinic so i know i dont have any STI.

im just wondering whether anyone else gets is, or had it... if so is there anything you have done to stop it??

any help is appreciated

most likely it's just breakthru bleeding, but ifyou're worried, go to the doctors. I used to get it when I ran two packs, but for the first time i've not had it this time. I think it's cos i used to miss a lot of pills and take them at really irregular times. Now i'm taking them at the same time every day and haven't missed any and i've had nothing :biggrin:
