Hi,
Thanks for the query.

Sometimes contraceptive pills can cause side effects like spotting, irregular periods etc.
So the symptoms you are having could be due to the pill.
You continue the nonactive pills and also start the active pills irrespective of the bleeding to get complete protection.
The possibility of pregnancy is less if you used the pills regularly as per the schedule.
For more details you can ask me through: http://www.healthcaremagic.com/doctors/dr-sree-gouri-sr/63429
Take care.
