So what causes spotting while on BCP?

I'm just curious. I've been on Aviane for about 6 months and this is the first month I've started spotting. I am about a week and a half away from my normal period but I've been spotting for the past 5 days. Red for the first two days, brown ever since. Barely enough for a pantyliner. I read somewhere it might be due to a low estrogen level - any other thoughts? Thanks.

If you began bleeding on days 1-9 then you may need a pill with a higher estrogenic activity. See: http://www.fpnotebook.com/GYN87.htm
Good luck
