Hello,
I have gone through the query and understood your concern. In the current scenario, your cycle is not protected since you are irregular with the pill. As you are not using any additional protection, you have very good chance of conception. Also, the irregular intake of hormones could be causing the current menstrual disturbance. I would ask you to go for a complete clinical evaluation, a sonogram of the pelvis, blood test for pregnancy, coagulation profiles and urinalysis. Further management can be planned accordingly. Hope this helps.
