Spotting while on the pill?
I take my pill every day but about 5 days ago, I started spotting. Very small amount, and no other symptoms along with it. I have never missed a pill, and while I do set an alarm at 10:30pm to take it, sometimes if I forget or I'm not home, I end up taking it between 10:30pm-2am. But the latest I've ever taken it is around 2:45am. Could that be why? My periods usually come the Tuesday after my last pack, aka it should come tomorrow. Any possible reason for the spotting?

Hi..if its only spotting and its just been noticed this cycle, u shudnt b quite alarmed..its possible in some pill cycles to have spotting..
However if it continues to b present I would suggest u get a check up done along with a scan for uterus and ovaries
