Random period while on birth control?

I'm on Tri-cyclen lo birth control, and wednesday I spontaneously got my period. Now, three days in, my period is harder than it's ever been and is full of clots, and i'm cramping which is unusual. My lower abdomen has been bloated lately and my breasts have been super sensitive as well.. what could it be?

    This has happened to me before when I was on tri-cyclen lo. If you haven't already, stop taking it so your period can pass. When this happened to me I switched to a different birth control but you should talk with your doctor and see what (s)he recommends.
