I have been on ortho-tricyclen lo for a
year now. My periods have always been
regular, and I have had no big problems
with it since I started. About three
weeks ago I started my cycle on time, and
six days later it ended. Needless to say,
I had intercourse with my finacee. Four
days after my cycle ended, I began a light
bleeding. This has never happened before.
The bleeding lasted about four days, and
ended as suddenly as it had started. When
I first noticed the bleeding, I quickly
checked my pills and realized I had
skipped two active pills. Is the bleeding
normal, or do I need to worry about
getting a pregnancy test in the near
future?

Skipping active pills will cause
bleeding...
Did you take any active pills, or did you
completely miss 2 days?
Missing pills does put you at an increased
risk of pregnancy, but you would not be
able to test unitl your next period.

No I completely missed two pills. I just
got to wait and see.
