To @Julia: Such situations can happen. If you take the pills regularly, don't worry. I encourage you to watch our short film:
So it's normal when after a period there was brown spotting and after a few days pink ,??

Yes, spotting can have different shades (this is influenced, for example, by the presence of hormones in the body). Many patients report this side effect at the beginning of the tablets. As long as it's not bothersome bleeding, there's no need to worry. Spotting should disappear spontaneously after some time (usually after 3-4 cycles/packs of the drug). If you observe something disturbing - intense bleeding, pain, temperature increase - then you should see a doctor.
And ma'am, it can occur as I described in the above example with a period of brown spotting and then pink spotting, is it normal? I'm taking only the first time pills and for a week only if it is normal with such a thing appeared?

Spotting may be an adverse reaction that occurs with the contraceptive pill. Very often, during the first 3-4 months after starting hormonal contraception, patients observe spotting and irregular bleeding, which disappear over time. If the problem worsens, a visit to a gynecologist will be necessary.
