Had Missed Taking Pills Lutera, So Took Afterwards. Have Cramps And Light Bleeding. Suggest?

Hi. I am taking Lutera birth control, but missed two days in week 3. Unfotunately I didn't read the pack properly and so took the make up pills for the next two days. I now see you only do this if you miss pills in week 1 or 2.
The missed pills were thursday and friday, i took 2 pills yesterday and today. But now today I have period cramps and some light bleeding.
What should I do to get back regular again?
Thanks

Hello,

You may continue with the same regimen if there is spotting or little bleeding.
It the bleeding is heavy consult your doctor.

It is little likely that ovulation occurs with missing of one or two doses.
