I'm guessing that it's breakthrough bleeding or spotting, from holding off for that long. The body needs to bleed, even if the hormones aren't on a natural cycle.
I'll be using the ring continuously this summer, as I'll be in Africa and don't want to deal with blood and keeping things clean with questionable water... and my doc told me to not freak out if I noticed some spotting. If that happened, she told me to take a week off from BC to let my body bleed naturally, then go back on it. I'm hoping to avoid it, though!
