I am taking Sprintec for the pupose of getting rid of acne. I don t take the pill exactly the same time every day either but i make sure i do every day and have not missed a day. My doctor told me to not take the white pills till after my third pack of JUST blue pills. I did what he prescribed. I ended up having unprotected sex for about a minute till my boyfriend pulled out and said we need to use a condom. So he put one on and we continued while ON my period and since then, i ve been having spotting/light bleeding all day, every day, for a month now. I had protected sex a couple more times during the month and the rest was just fooling around with each other. I took a prgnancy test that same week and another one a week after that. Both were negative as well. I am not worried that I am pregnant...I have never had symptoms of pregnancy either. Or should i be? Do i need to start taking the pill at an exact time every day and if so, would it help stop the bleeding? Should i take ONLY the blue pill as the doctor recommended or finish this weeks packet with placebo pills? Would anyone know what my body could be telling me? Your well thought responses would be much appreciated! Thank you.

Hi, Thanks for the query. Hormonal pills to be taken at the same time every day. If you alter the time, that can lead to break through bleeding. So the spotting you are having could be due to this. And usually this type of spotting will subside soon if you continue the tablets. If the spotting persists, you may need additional dose of hormones to control it. You can complete the pack this month along with white non-hormonal pills. Possibly you will get with Chat Doctor.  This will rule out the possibility of pregnancy and also helps in regularization of the cycles. If you want to use the pills for contraceptive purpose also and want to avoid side effects, better to use the pills at same time every day. Take care.
