The occurrence of withdrawal bleeding earlier than usual - should it be a cause for concern?
Good morning, I have been taking Vibin birth control pills for 3 years. I always got bleeding on day 4 with a placebo. Today I have the first day of a placebo break and I see mucus stained with blood. At 3 weeks I did not miss any pills, I did not have stomach disorders and I did not take any medication. Give up the break and take the tablet from the new package today or continue the break?

If withdrawal bleeding occurs, then there is no need to perform a pregnancy test. Tablets work.
If the bleeding occurred today, the 4th day of the placebo, so as usual, does it mean that the pills work? Do I need to take a pregnancy test every month despite bleeding?

For @Ola: Brown mucus with blood before the onset of withdrawal bleeding does not mean that the effect of birth control pills is impaired.
Today is day 3 of the placebo and I still have very slightly brown mucus. Tomorrow I should get tailoring. Is this a sign that the pills are working less well? The last intercourse was 16 days ago an additional 0 with a condom.

Typically, withdrawal bleeding has a similar pattern each month. However, this is not the rule. The occurrence of bleeding earlier than usual is not a cause for concern. If you have been using the contraceptive pill according to the scheme for the last 7 days, there is no reason to stop taking placebo pills. You can continue your withdrawal period without worrying about the effectiveness of contraception.
