What Causes Spotting And Brown Discharge When Skipped Birth Control Pill?

I took two birth control pills in one day (morning and night on accident) and the next day I skipped and continued the following day. I finished the pack like normal but had 2 days of spotting and now it's been two days of brown discharge when I should have started my period. Is this normal or am I pregnant?

Hello,

The chances of pregnancy are.very low even if you skipped one day if birth control pills. Anyway, I suggest to do a urine pregnancy rest for precaution.

Hope I have answered your question. Let me know if I can assist you further.
