What does breakthrough bleeding mean when on birth control pill?


Answer:
breakthrough bleeding is spotting at other than the expected period or time, when hormone treatment that's what b/c is, out of balance for your bodies requirements your gyno may chose to alter your pill, dose, ect.
you are only supposed to bleed at the end of your pill cycle. "breakthrough" bleeding means that you are bleeding before your pill cycle is finished and can be caused by several different reasons. one could be that the strength of hormone is not strong enough for your system. another reason could be that you missed one or two days
It means your bleeding between periods. It's not good in a way. It can mean that your body is trying to get used to the pills, the pills may be too weak or you could be pregnant. Being pregnant isn't always the case, but it's a good sign.
Your period should come at some point when you're on the placebo pills at the end of the pack. Breakthrough bleeding is getting bleeding (a little or a lot) at some other time in your cycle. Basically it means your hormones are out of whack and it happens a lot when you've first started taking the pill. It should go away after 2-3 month on the pill unless something else is wrong.
