I'm no doctor, but I will say that it seems to have happened to me. I've been off BC for not quite 3 weeks yet, and I've had occasional spotting throughout the last 2 weeks with very mild cramping on/off every once in a while as well. (7/17/09) Seems odd, which is why I'm also trying to research this topic. From what I've been reading so far, this seems a pretty normal part of the process as the body tries to "reset" its cycles and adjust to its own hormones. Good luck!

Spotting on birth control can happen due to missed pills or due to other factors. If you have taken the pill as directed, spotting doesn't mean that you are not protected against pregnancy.
