Missed pill

At somepoint taking my combined pill through the week I missed a Thursday and a Saturday but somehow took Fridays not realising he missing two. It’s sunday when I took two in replace of the missing ones. And then another two the following day from advice. I started my period a day or two later, while taking the pill, it stopped liked my normal cycle. But over a week later maybe two weeks. I’m getting slightly bloody discharge or its just blood and it’s just a very small amount.

Should I be worried. And should I tell my gp or a local pharmacy ?

As your first call you can talk to a pharmacist. But with hormonal contraception missing pills or taking more than one can confuse your body. I had lots of discharge between periods without being on any contraception so it wasn't unusual although annoying.

What do the instructions on the patient information leaflet say

and the people who instructed you to take two pills about it?
