Brief Answer:
Don't worry - These are normal side effects of the pill

Detailed Answer:
Hi,
Thanks for writing..
I understand your concern..

I pill can cause delayed periods and irregular cycles for 1 month.. So dont worry.. This delay in periods can be due to that.. the chance of pregnancy is reduced by 89%..

But if you have any doubt regarding pregnancy , get a urine pregnancy test as this bleeding can be implantation bleed..

Hope I have answered your query..Feel free to ask any doubts..Good day..
