I've had my period twice this week that were 1 week apart. Why?
I've been on the pill for about eight months now but I haven't had this issue until this month.
I had my period on the designated "sugar" pill week. Then one week after my period stopped, I started my period again. It's been lightly bleeding for about a week and half so far and it is consistent (amount-wise) with when it started a week and half ago.
I had missed three pills in a row the week after my regular period ended. Could that be what started it? Even though I took them when I remembered?

That may possibly be the answer or it is because your body is still regulating or adjusting to the medication. I know it has been a couple of months now but these pills aren't a pill that take effect immediately. These pills take a while to work to their full 'power'. Just to make sure you should double check with your doctor.

there is nothing to be worry about, you gotten you period again because you missed 3 pills in a row, those pill have hormone dose in them, so when you missed three pill your body is not getting the hormone(just like how the sugar pill does not have any dose) that is why you started bleeding, so as soon as you get back on the birth control again it should stop, and you need to keep in mind that you are not protected against pregnancy after the 2nd pill you missed, so make sure you have a back-up protection plan.
-good luck-
