Irregular periods. started myriad birth control 1.5 weeks ago. have been having black discharge for past 6 days with some bright red. what is going on?

Keep calendar: it is normal to have unusual vaginal bleed when you first start taking birth control pill. keep taking it as scheduled. I normally don't give up the pill unless it just doesn't regulate periods after 3-4 months.
