I started taking ginette 35 on 1 february. It was the first day of my periods and it is the first time I am starting ocp. My periods stopped on 4 february but on 8 february I experienced light spotting and it has been 5 days since I have been spotting. It is brownish and very light just one or 2 spots a day. I am not on any other medications and I am taking it regularly at the same time. I am scared when will the spotting stop? Is the pill not working for me?

start on minimal dose OC like ovral L maybe you are getting breakthrough bleeding due to high dose of hormones and stop ,let the bleeding continue ( it's not a period) it maybe a week before bleeding stops. start new OC on day 5 of next cycle.
