Stressed?: Many things could be contributing to this. Your birth control pill could have the wrong formulation and may need to be changed. If you have been anxious or stressed, that can affect your period. Or, if you've recently been on antibiotics or changed any medication. Look around for any illness, diet, situation, or other change that might explain this. Chances are, it will normalize.
