10 months into my pill and I started breakthrough bleeding, and it was lighter last week, and now the blood is the amount I usually get on my break week or an actual period. I did miss a couple pills that I took as soon as I remembered the next day, therefore taking two in the same day.. not sure if that’s a cause for the change in amount of blood.. Brand: Syeda

Taking pills inconsistently can lead to heightened side effects like irregular bleeding. Even if they weren’t counted as missed.
