Hello,
Slight menstrual irregularities including heavy bleeding can happen after taking birth control pills especially on the initial days of usage.

As a first line management, you can take drugs like tranexamic acid for symptomatic relief.
I symptoms persists better to consult a gynaecologist and get evaluated.
