Stress does INSANE things to the body. So that's probably it. But, to be safe, why not call your doctor. People will start telling you all sorts of things and you'll panic even more....and since we aren't doctors....what do we know??

Are you sure you didn't miss any pills. I'm in a similar situation, and the only time that ever happened to me was when I inadvertantly missed two pills in a row.

I've been on the pill for 6-7 years now and although it doesn't happen often with a lot of stress and changes in your body it's completely normal to get it like that. Don't worry about it but if you do then just give your doctor a call. Just try to relax...

I did miss a pill.. I am going to have to be a lot more careful.. I think I miss a pill like once a month!!! I am going to just relax.. I was just worried that it would mean I am pregnant.. or something.. We just closed on our house.. I am sure that there were physical stressors going on that I am not even aware of inside my body.. that has to be it!!!! Usually its just a migrane!!!

I think it could definitely be stress, but I owuld definitely call your doctor. Maybe between the diet and stress you're just spotting b/w periods?

It could be stress....but I know when I was 24 my body went nuts...I had to switch pills 4 times before I got everything under control....my doc said that in your mid to early 20's your body changes and that could cause the pill to mess up your regularity. Wait another month and see what happens but you may need to change pills if your hormone levels are changing.

I wouldn't worry too much. The pill definitely helps with regularity, but doesn't guarantee it. I skipped my period last month, entirely due to stress and this happens to me atleast once a year. My doctor said that lots of variations can be totally normal.

Re: NWR and personal...
I had the exact same thing happen to me after being on the same pill (low estrogen)3-4 years. It was heavy spotting mid cycle and was almost as bad as a full period. I know that many factors such as stress, medication and diet can cause this to happen as well. I changed to a different bc pill that was still low estrogen but had a little more than my previous pill. SO FAR SO GOOD
I ALSO TAKE MY PILL AT NIGHT RIGHT BEFORE BED. THAT WAY I RARELY FORGET

I've been on the same pill for 3 years and my Dr. just changed it because I've been having similiar problems. Talk to the doc.
