I have been having these unpleasant spottings for a month now, even though I have been taking the contraceptive pill for two months. What should I do?

Hello Ma'am,

Sorry for the delay in responding. Someone's social media post generated several thousand hits on the platform and it seems that pharmacists in your area were overloaded. Usually, the response time is faster.

That said, be aware that the situation you describe is relatively normal. In fact, spotting often occurs during the first three months in women starting the pill.

If the spotting is present after the third pack, get back to me so we can look into changing pills.

Happy day :)
