I got my period a week early on birth control, do I continue to use the pack as it is or skip the rest of the blue?! I'm confused

Hello, Kimmy! How are you?

You should just continue that pack, as normal. Irregularity can be a normal side effect of taking hormonal contraceptives, as listed by the FDA. You may also experience nausea, headache, dizziness, irritability and PMS-like symptoms.

Is there anything else I can help with?
