My period is not due in till next Saturday, last week i had some mild cramping In my eyes for no reason. But last night and this morning I've been having small amount of spotting every time i wipe, Should i wait in till next Saturday after my period due or take a test before my period is due?

Spotting can be pretty normal a week before your period-- I know this might be weird for you, but there are things that can easily affect you.

Wait for your period, and test if you miss

That depends on how the pill affects you and what pill you're on.

My periods on a pill lasted about 3 days, but I've heard of women on the same pill that had period that were 6 days.
