Common: When you start a new birth control method it is common to have breakthrough bleeding the first few months. This usually resolves after the first few months.

Possibly: There are many causes of missed periods. I hope that you had some tests done to figure out what was causing you to kiss.M mild cramps in the first few weeks are not rare.
