Your taking a low dose progesterone containing bcp, yasmenell has an even lower dose of estradiol than yaz does, but the same amount of progesterone. Add to that you are nowing taking BO which also increases progesterone.
Some gals spot when they begin getting too much progesterone in their system, I know I do, but mine tends to only be at the end of a period if I get too much progesterone. If you are more sensitive to progesterone then it can make it last longer or througout the cycle. You'll have to decide if you want to wait it out and see if your body adjust to it or not, or if you just don't want to wait that long.
I personally stopped my pills during my period back when I was on BB and that helped shorten my periods, meaning it stopped the 4 or 5 days of spotting at the end of my period that I was having.
