Amanda, so is what you're saying that you have missed a lot of pills this month and had unprotected sex?
Shorter periods when you are on birth control does happen sometimes. I wouldn't worry about that so much, as long as you mention it to your doctor the next time you see her or him. However, if it's been two months now that you have taken your pills in an on-again, off-again matter, that can mess with your hormones and mess with your cycle enough so that your body is confused about what it's supposed to be doing.
So have you had unprotected sex since your last period?
And if not, can you figure out a way (setting an alarm on your cell phone, maybe) to get back to taking your pills regularly without missing so you can get your period settled back in?
