I've been good with taking the pill everyday up until about a month ago when I missed two or three pills (I took the missed ones the following day). I've been bleeding regularly for a little over five weeks now and my boyfriend and I are getting frustrated. Not similar to my normal periods, just consistent spotting. At first it was fairly heavy but got lighter, now it's just very red/pink spotting. I mean, I knew I should expect some breakthrough bleeding after missing a few pills, but not for this long. This situation of mine has really made this winter break quite miserable. Is there anything I can do, other than not forgetting to take the pills to prevent this next time?
