yes this can be normal you have not been taking the meds that long so your body is still adjusting to the new hormones that you are putting into it this could last a few months if you want to put your mind at ease take a test but as long as you have been taking the pills like you are suppose to and have not been on any antibiotics since you started taking the birth control then the chances that you are pregnant are very slim
