I'm on the pill and bleeding between periods. Will this stop?

Try this: If you just started the pill in the last few months, it’s possible bleeding between periods will most likely fix itself.

Also, taking your pills at the same time each day and not skipping pills and then doubling up can decrease chances of spotting or bleeding between periods. STIs and pregnancy can also cause you to have bleeding between periods, so you might want to check with a health care provider to be sure those aren’t the reason for the bleeding.

Still not working?

If you’ve been on the pill for a while and are taking it correctly (or you just don’t like the bleeding), you might consider a different brand of pills or a new method, like the patch or the ring.
