That : That can happen if your hormones are out of balance. Restart your pills at the same time. If you are worried then please take a pregnancy test, especially if the bleeding is lighter than normal. Since you are consistent with the pill you probably don't have anything to worry about. If you have any unusual discharge also please be seen.

It may be "period": The bleeding may be the normal withdrawal bleeding/"period" that is characteristic for the use of the oral contraceptive pill. However, it is always a good idea under these circumstances to do a PG test to be certain that you are not pregnant.
