I had a bit of a scare last week, when I was on the week-long "break": I was clear for over 3 days (my period started on the 4th), when it usually starts on the 3rd day. It's exam season, I had been late with a few of my pills this cycle (the reason I was worried- not the day late, I would normally chalk that up to stress). I started taking my active pills a day early, too, on Saturday, because of a train trip my guy and I were taking. I have been experiencing light pink "spotting" since then, but very on-and-off...Is it normal for this to happen under these circumstances? I've never noticed it before. My last cycle started several days early with spotting, then became a regular period, then stopped the day I started the pill again.Thanks!
