I had breakthrough bleeding after a missed pill about a week ago. now my period has only been about 2 swipes of brown blood. is this okay?

Sexually active? : If you haven't been sexually active, this is not unexpected when the hormone cycle is interrupted. As the next cycle or two of pills goes on, your periods should regulate again. Be sure to abstain from sex or use alternative means of contraception if you miss a pill in the future.
