What Causes Irregular Periods After Discontinuing Birth Control Pills?

I ended my birth control pill 3 weeks ago, was on it for almost 1 month. Had a period 1/16 - 1/22. Then had unprotected sex a few times and then started bleeding on 1/28. It started out just pink and brown and now today it s full blown.. I m confused. I m normally a 28 day cycle
