What Causes Vaginal Spotting And Abdominal Pain While On Birth Control?

I have been on a birth control for two years that stopped my period. I have anywhere from 10-30 small cysts on my ovaries at all times. I had one rupture about two weeks ago, and went to the hospital. Today I went to the bathroom and realized that I was spotting, and the blood was bright red. I was hurting bad in my abdominal area last night but It wasn t bad enough to go to the emergency room. Since I m spotting and hurting now, is this an emergency? Is it normal?

Hi

We need to find out if there is something important and urgent requiring medical attention. Go to your doctor for a CT scan of your abdomen and pelvis or at the least an ultrasound of your abdomen and pelvis.

Best wishes
