Hello,
I have gone through your query and understood your concerns. Irregular periods is the common sideffect seen in people in early months of using sprintec. Usually it will get resolved by its own and if it persists you need to consult your doctor as they may change the drug or lower the dosage to prevent its side effects in you. I will also advise you to have a ultrasound done to rule out other possible causes. Thank you.
