Seasonale? Period? UGH!

Okay, I have been a little careless about taking my pills. I would forget and take two the next day usually. Well, about 2 weeks ago I started bleeding, I can only assume from forgetting the pills. I am cramping like I would if it were my period. I have completed the fifth week in the pack and am wondering if I can take the whites this week, and then go back and finish the pinks? It seems like I have done this before and the problem took care of itself, but I only had a week of pink pills left in the pack. Would it be okay? TIA

If you've had more than 21 days of active pills, you can take a break and try to get things back in order.
