Finish your pills: Occasionally, a women will have a period that doesnt match their birth control pill pack. Just keep taking your pills regardless and see what happens over the next 2 or 3 cycles. If it doesnt straighten up, the see the doc that prescribed them . They might recommend a different pill then.
