Some women experience changes in their menstrual periods as a minor side effect of taking this oral contraceptive. It can take about 3 months for your body to adjust.
Since you take your pills regularly and on time, I do not think you are at risk for getting pregnant. It is very likely that the small amount of brownish red blood, that you noticed, signals the start of your period.
Just relax. Increased stress will delay the start of your period.
