Okay so i got my period on June 30 (Monday) and started taking the pill on Thursday (July 3rd) of that same week. I finished my period then just like 2 days ago i got another period. I don't know if this is normal or what? but its only been like around 1 week since my last period..what should I do? Thanks.

Is it heavy bleeding? Irregular bleeding or spotting is a common side effect of birth control and side effects can last up to 3 months with most birth control pills. If it doesn't stop after that amount of time or you just get sick of it then you can talk to you doctor and see if a different pill would be better for you. For now, keep taking your pills.

yeah, it's called breakthrough bleeding and can be caused by a hormone imbalance. Just give your body a little time to get used to the hormones and then if it still doesn't go away then contact your doctor.
