Yes, stress can sometimes cause changes in your menstrual cycle, including irregular bleeding while taking contraceptive pills. It is important to remember that when taking contraceptive pills, especially when taken continuously without the sugar pills, it can affect your menstrual cycle. If you experience spotting or irregular bleeding, it is recommended to take a short break from the pills and then resume as usual.
