Spotting after stopping mycrogynon 30

I had to stop taking microgynon 30 two days ago as advised by my doctor as I was starting to get what my doctor called "aura migraines" since I went to the doctors (which was on the day I took my last tablet) I have noticed a light brown discharge. It's not there all the time, I can wipe and not see anything but when I wear a towel I notice it's tinged. Is this normal? I've been given cerazette to take but because I noticed the brown discharge I have been a but too nervous about starting to take it. Hope someone can help me

Could it be a very slight withdrawal bleed - like the "period" you get on the 7 day break with Microgynon? This website says you can get bleeding or spotting if you're not taking it regularly - presumably stopping would have a similar effect?

Yeah it does seem to be getting heavier. Will just start taking cerazette next week
