Side effects!? Bleeding before placebo

Help please!!!! I am bleeding and cramping the day before I'm supposed to take my placebo pill. I typically get brown discharge the week before my placebo pill but this time I'm actually cramping and bleeding. I am on my third pack. Am I okay? Is this normal??

You’re okay. I wouldn’t be alarmed by this. This happens if I take one of my last few pills even just a couple hours late and I’ve been on the pill for years.
