Please help. Im really confused about The Pill

Ok, its always been messed up because my period came 2 days late on my very first pack. Since my period insnt this convient 28 say thing, I knew it would come when I was done with my pack! THEY never told me what to do if that happened. They would just always say "well come in if you think you're pregnant." and I was like "no i'm basically just using this to regulate my period" I asked 1,000 times but the same dumb answer.

So, putting matters into my own hands... trying to get back those three pills I took when I hadn't got my period.. it just got screwed up. This time I SKIPPED 3 pills.. since I KNEW I WASN'T DOING ANYTHING (Sorry im just mad at those people at the clinic). I skipped three and started over on Sunday. I still had my period... was about done.

Then things gone messed up. Around the 15th I just started another period (I think a week after my real period). Its STILL going, its light though.

I kept taking the pills but now I'm going to be on my last one of the pack. So SINCE i'm still bleeding (and have been bleeding for a big chunck of the month) should I take the 7 "in active pills" or will that screw things up more. Or should I just get off the stupid thing, since I'm not sexually active and it's screwed up my period?

For those who read, thank you. and please! help me.

Re: Please help. Im really confused about The Pill

The inactive pills really are just sugar. You really need to take the pill everyday around the same time to prevent bleeding. You should wait till the Sunday following your period to start a new pack. I think you should try taking the pills correctly for 3 months and see if the break through bleeding stops.

I never take my inactive pills, there only purpose is to keep you in schedule of remembering to take a pill. You should start the next pack on the Sunday after the last inactive pill.
