On Sprintec Birth Control, Missed Pills, Starts Bleeding. Should I Be Concerned?

I am on Sprintec birth control , I was out of town for a couple days and forgot my pills 2 days in a row..I ve done before and nothing happened. I took one yesterday, and this morning after I went too the bathroom, I started bleeding really bad. My next period shouldn t come for another 3 weeks. Should I be concerned? What could this possibly mean?

Hi, vaginal bleeding after missing two pills in a row may be just withdrawal bleeding especially if your previous cycles were on time and not delayed. However you should visit a gynaec if the bleeding is too persistent or excessive causing weakness or giddiness.
