I was having sex with my boyfriend and when we were done, we saw there was blood on the condom. Needless to say, we were pretty concerned. I'm on my third month of Ocella (the generic for Yaz) and I missed two pills over the last two weeks because the side effects make me hesitant. I thought for a minute it was cancer because I have a lump on my pelvis, but it's been there a while and nothing has happened so far. Then I read somewhere that bleeding can be caused by irregular hormone levels, which I associated with my doubling up the pills. Could the pills be it? It's been two days now and spotting is normal, but I was never warned abotu how long I could spot for or how heavy it would be.

Doubling up on the pills certainly can make you spot but I wouldnt think for more than a few days. If you have a lump on your pelvis you prob should go to see your doctor.

I know that this post is pretty old, but im hoping that maybe you still check on it from time to time. My mother has lots of hormone issues that are caused from using generic birth control for many many years. She saw and encrinologist (something like that lol) and was told that generic birth control is horrible to take. They do not stabilize the amount of hormones that they put into the pill, which can also mean that it is not effective and cause some problems in the long run. I suggest switching to the real deal.
