... pack and took 3 in one day (stupidly) instead of doing what the instructions said, which was to finish out the week taking one pill a day, and then immediately start a new pack (skipping the placebos). I finished out the week after the 3-pill day, taking one a day, skipped the placebos and started the new pack. But I've been having brownish red discharge ever since the 3-pill day (10 days ago)
Is this normal and when will it stop???

This can happen in response to the missed pills, be sure to use back up, like condoms for at least 7 days into your new pack before you rely on the pill only as your only contraceptive because by missing those pills, you may have ovulated and there is a possiblity of getting pregnant. This discharge should stop soon. Every woman is different. Just keep taking your pills each day and try to take them at roughly the same time of day.
