Hello & thanks for posting on HCM
As you missed 4 pills in the active pill section you are getting hormonal withdrawl bleed.
As the bleeding is getting heavy - you must consult a Dr who may be able to prescribe you tab norethisterone to control bleed along with you having to continue with pill.
Other option is continue to take pill in new pack as normal & bleeding will eventually subside.
Hope this helps
