Why Are Periods Coming Early After Using Birth Control Pills?

I started taking birth control this january and it was working great, but then in june my period started about a week early. So i called the nurse i was getting birth control from and she changed it. It was working well until about a month ago and then my period came early again. What would be your suggestion for what i should do?

are you taking other medications which you are taking like any antiepileptic drugs,some antibiotics may interfere with absorption of birth control pills
if there is intermittent bleeding then vaginal infection needs to be ruled out
