    Have you been on the same pill all 4 years? This may be the reason. I was on the pill for 5 years and i had to change pills about every year and a half because of that very issue. The doctor said that my body just would get used to the hormone or react to it and cause me to have my period all the time. I would talk to your doctor about it. I actually stopped taking the pill over 2 years ago and i feel great. I started using a contraceptive free method of birth control that work wonderfuly for me. Look up symto-thermo method on the net...i can try to answer any questions you have if you would like to try it Good luck.

      I agree that it may be time to try a new brand of birth control. If it's not the birth control, you may have had a natural hormone fluctuation which has caused this. Keep in mind though, that other things can cause irregular periods suh as stress or illness.
