A member asked:

Started birth control recently only on it for about a month, missed 3 pills in a row and started bleeding immediately, the bleeding lasted for 5 days.

A doctor has provided 1 answer

Predictable: This is called withdrawal bleeding and will usually happen if you miss that many pills. You don't say if you are still taking the pill, but in any case you must assume you are not protected and take additional precautions. If you are still on the pill than you should use additional protection through your current pack.
