reader, anonymous, writes (2 August 2008): It's usually called breakthrough bleeding- if you're taking the pill and you've just started, your hormones are getting jolted around a bit and are getting used to the introduction of more hormones, and a decreased amount of others. Usually it will stop after one or two cycles; I have had the same problem, so don't worry. Yes, you should be protected and you shouldn't have to worry, unless the bleeding is accompanied by any other irregular symptoms (abnormal discharge, discomfort or pain)- if that happens, definitely go see the gynecologist. But don't worry too much, it happens, it's normal!
Take care
