Hello,
Thanks for posting your query on health care magic.
Mid cycle breakthrough bleeding is one of the commonest side effect of mini pill.
I suggest you to use oral contraceptive pill with low dose estrogen.
I recommend you to get yourself examined by a gynecologist to rule out local causes of post coital bleeding.
Hope this helps.
regards,
Dr Nilofer
