Why Did I Have Blackish Sand-like Discharge After An Active Cycle Of Birth Control Pills?
To avoid cramps, I was told to take the active cycle of birth control pills for 3 weeks at a time, keeping me from having a period. My period came anyway and has lasted 11 days. It s light, but there is blackish sand-like discharge. What could this be?

Hello ma'am and welcome.
I would suggest a visit to your doctor as his/her aim was to avoid a period and you got it either way, this will have to be reported. The color of the discharge does raise concern for a possible abnormality of the uterus or its inner lining which is why I would prefer you get an elaborate evaluation.
Hope this helps.
Best wishes.
