Hi, if you have now stopped your birth control you may bleed for a little while just while your body sorts itself out and your natural cycle returns. this is nothing to worry about, however if you consider this to be excessive or start with a lot of pain or other problems it may be worth discussing it with your doctor. hope this helps
