Is stinging normal with contraception?

Hi, I take the second pack of Vines (today was the last active tablet) and got brown spotting. Should I worry about that? And yet since the middle of the cycle I have breast pains which have intensified now before placebo tablets, is the typical side effect of pain intensified before taping with withdrawal?

During the first 6 months of using Vines, as well as any other type of hormonal contraception, there may be irregular mid-cycle spotting at each stage of using the drug, which results from the adaptation of the body to the dose of hormones administered to it. Spotting can also occur after changing the already used contraceptive to another - after all, the body adapts to the dose of hormones administered to it again. Mid-cycle spotting at this stage of using the contraceptive drug is normal and should not be a cause for concern if it is not abundant, painful and long-lasting - less than 10-14 days. Otherwise, you should consult a gynecologist. Midcyclic spotting may be accompanied by lower abdominal pain similar to those before menstruation. It can also take the form of secretions with blood of different colors, e.g. brown, red or pink, it can also change its intensity - be sometimes less, sometimes more abundant. Mid-cycle spotting does not affect the effectiveness of contraception, nor is it a reason to change the pattern of pregnancy prevention in any way, e.g. change the order of the pills or stop taking it. Spotting is a very individual matter, so in each patient it can have a different length and intensity - it is impossible to estimate them in advance. Breast pain is one of the side effects of Vines, but it is not typical that it intensifies before withdrawal bleeding when the patient is still taking active pills.

Do @Alicja:
Niestety nie da się tego zatrzymać, ani skrócić. Okres przystosowawczy, czyli m.in. pierwsze 3 miesiące stosowania tabletek jest nieprzewidywalny i nie możemy wykluczyć ewentualnych plamień czy krwawień w trakcie całego tego okresu.

A da się je jakoś zatrzymać/skrócić? Specjalnie nie robiłam 7-dniowej przerwy żeby nie mieć krwawienia z odstawienia na urlopie, a tu dwa dni przed urlopem pojawiło się krwawienie - zakładam, że jest to plamienie śródcykliczne. Czy da się to jakoś zakończyć?
