It's because of withdrawal bleeding due to contraceptive pill. But failure rate is more with Ipill, do a pregnancy test around the time of your expected period .

Avoid using i pill frequently, you can use condom
If you are having regular intercourse then switch over to daily contraceptive pills,
No need of i pill before 11 th day and aftr 18-20 days of cycle if your periods are regular
This bleeding is due to side effect of pill
