Sounds like the particular brand of birth control is simply not agreeing with you. You need to talk to your Doctor again. Tell him that this is not what you signed up for and ask that he give you another script for a different brand of pill. If you sort of demand it, he has to accomodate your needs. Many times we have to try 2 or 3 different kinds of birth control before we find the one that works the best. Spotting for the first months, possibly even into the second cycle can be normal, and will eventually straighten itself out on it's own. Then there are times when whatever we are on just isn't cooperating with our systems and needs to be changed.

The script that you are on may be to strong for you and you may need a lower dose. Your cycle is deff off balance ad you really need to talk to your doc again.
