Worried i could become anemic.
Am on birth control, 18 years old, and i finished pack as usual, got my new one after i ended my period on a sunday and then took my active monday pill. I proceeded to forget tuesday and wednesdays pills so i decided to just stop taking them until the following week where i would be able to take them routinely. Four days later, i got ANOTHER period, meaning only five days in between. Should i be worried of anemia or anything else?

You got periods because the pills were stopped. You won't get anemia with that. How ever you need to avoid that in future. You can put a reminder to take your pills
