It happens: Sometimes a period can start early if you are late to take a pill, or if you took another medication that interacts with the pill. Sometimes there is no good reason, but it's not something to worry about if it only happens once. Consider taking a pregnancy test, just to be safe, but i wouldn't worry unless this happens repeatedly.
