Hi,
Thanks for query,
Due to hormonal imbalance when you are on pills you gets withdrawal bleed.
Your sister has given you a right advise to start a new pack.
The bleeding will stop after few days.
If it will not stop you should consult your gynec to rule out other reason of it.
She will advise USG to rule out any possibility of fibroids.
Thanks.
