Yes, irregular pill use can contribute to an odd cycle.

ok, but now that i'm back on track with the pills, i should keep taking them like normal? Or should i stop for my period?

Keep taking them normally.

Right. Why would you stop? That's just going to mess up your cycle even more and possibly cause pregnancy.

Ok....now it's been a week and three days since my period came early. If it had been normal it would have started yesterday. I"m still bleeding but it's not always normal, sometimes its a lighter flow with some lightish brownish discharge. You guys think this is still normal because of that irregular pill schedule a few weeks ago? This is placebo week, so in like 4 days I start regular pills again, maybe this will clear up then? anybody have any thoughts??

The pills may clear it up; but you may have to wait a month until the placebo week and that withdraw bleeding to truly reset your cycle.

It might take a while to regulate again. Just keep taking all your pills like normal.
