Details:

I started taking microgestin about a week ago and accidentally used the wrong "day". Since, I've have light bleeding and am wondering if this is happening becuase i used the wrong "day" or if its normal. I was under the impression that every pill was the same, and i have never missed a pill, i just used a "saturday" labeled pill on a sunday by accident. Does this matter?

Which week are you on? Please add answer as a comment.

Yes, the pills are the same strength but if your normal start day of the pack is Sunday and you are going on to week 4 then it is a problem. Let me know and I'll try to help you.

Its only the second week, not the fourth. Mine is a three week pack, with an added 7 placebo pills to keep track.

It's okay for this time but please try not to miss days like that next time otherwise it may affect the effectiveness.
