So I forgot to take a pill during my second week in my pack. And I started I guess what's called "breakthrough bleeding" - but the thing is from my experience, every time I am late on a pill, this always happens: I start bleeding, and it won't stop until I stop taking the pill.

Does anyone know what this mean or what I can do to stop this without having to stop taking the pills and throw away the whole pack?? :(

I've been on the pill for about a year and a half now, on like the lowest dosage with Aviane (the generic Alesse).

I'd really appreciate a quick response, my boyfriend is coming over for Christmas from the States and we never get to see each other.. it sucks that my whole thing is messed up at such bad timing :'(
