What Causes Heavy Menstrual Bleeding After Taking Loestrin?

I started taking Loestrin 24 FE birth control pills Sunday June 26th. I actually started my period that same day and the instructions said that if I start on a Sunday to go ahead and start taking the pills, so I did. Today it has been 7 days and I am still bleeding heavy. I normally have heavy periods, but by the 6th day it gets lighter and on the 7th day it is practically finished. I started the pill because I bleed / spot in between my periods and I was having pain, so my Dr. put me on these pills. I'm scared that my period is not stopping. What should I do?
