    No it's normal :) Just your body getting used too it, though if the spotting continues go to your doctors as you may need a stronger version, one with more estrogeon or whatever it's called. After I had Keira they gave me the mini pill and it wasn't strong enough.

    Spotting after bumping uglies is common too, it's a well known fact orgasming contracts your womb or summat (?) I heard having an orgasm eases period cramps for that reasons lol

    What pill you on?

    I can't be given the mini pill... DS2... DD2.. DS3... and 2 m/c's... The doc didn't thinkit worked for me lol.

    My kidlies stopped working when I was given the combined pill.. and I have a raging latex allergy..

    But intermittent spotting is quite normal.

    Yeah but there is loads of kinds of mini pill. I'm using cerazette. Is there a mini pill called mini pill? Must have a scientific name?

    Yeah but the pill is probably a higher dose of hormone than you are used too as depo would be slow releasing, like the implant is (and I hope you don't get the side effects I got with that :eek:)

    My boobs always get sore during time of the month because of the pill, and start of a new pack too!
