Otherwise known as “breakthrough bleeding,” spotting between periods while on the birth control pill is very common. This is especially true in the first few months of pills or if you are late in taking a pill. In most cases, this isn't something to be concerned about and will disappear within a few pill packs. I don't know that this would explain a very heavy flow, so you might want to run this by your doctor.
