Your body: may be changing with age even with the same contraceptive. Sometimes this can lead to irregular bleeding during or in between periods for a few months before you become regular again. If you are trying to get pregnant (just IF), then you will need to wait for your periods to be regular. If not, then just ride it out. If it persists beyond 3-4 months, go see a healthcare pro.

See below: There are a number of reasons for spotting or abnormal bleeding or menstruation. Most of the causes are NOT due to any serious condition such as cancer. But it is IMPORTANT to see a gynecologist to find out the cause and to be SURE that nothing serious is present. The most common cause is Dysfunctional Uterine Bleeding(DUB): The cause is hormonal.
