“Birth control and period”
I missed my birth control pill and started to spot bleed and blood clotting and some cramping. I missed my pill one week before my period and now that i’m on my period i am barely bleeding. Should I be worried about pregnancy or is my cycle just kind of messed up?

This kind of pattern can happen if you miss a pill. Try to take your pill at the same time each day so you get in the habit, like when you brush your teeth before bed. If you can be very regular with taking it, the cycle will become regular. If you're worried about pregnancy, then do a home test.
