Birth control

2017-12-11 20:20:27
Hi, I'm having issues with my birth control and was wondering if you could help me. My issue is, I missed ONE pill on Friday and I caught up with it, but now my full blown period has started, not just spotting, and it's not supposed to come for a week and a half. Why is that happening? Because now I'm going to be bleeding for 2 weeks straight
