Did you double up Tuesday? I'm sure it's fine.

Did the spotting stop? I'm sure you're fine too, just use backup contraception!!

When I took the bcp in august for my sept/oct cycle I constantly spotted on it. I was panicking that it would mess my body up and ruin my cycle.

But I'm 13 weeks pregnant with twins so it obviously had a good effect on my cycle xx

I too had spotting the whole month during my first cycle, this never happenned to me before. I am sure you will be fine as long as it is just spotting. Either way though, I was told the least amount of time you need to be on BCP is 7 days, so you are still good to go.
