Took White Pill To Soon

Hi, I accidentally took the white pill on the second day of my last pack and then took the blue right after, thinking it wasn't the same stuff in it. Then I just finished my pack and didn't have a white one to take right before the brown pill days. I started bleeding a little with a mix of brown and red blood either with my last white pill or the morning after that (my periods on lo loestrin have ranged from non-existent for three months at a time to only brown blood to a little bit of normal blood.) Bleeding lasted until I started my new pack, I shouldn't have to worry now right, because I bleed when I expected to? I never miss a pill and take them at the same time every day.

Any time you miss an active oral contraceptive tablet, you increase your risk of pregnancy, if you are engaging in intercourse, and you should follow the instructions provided by the manufacturer, or your doctor for how to proceed, and mitigate your risk of pregnancy. Sometimes, that requires a full month of taking them, without missing any, in order to be protected, again.

Ref: Oral Contraceptive Information

Oral contraceptives may cause side effects, such as nausea, headache, weight changes, mood changes, and irregular bleeding.

Are you on any other medications?
