Period on birth control

I was put on birth control (lo lo estrin) due to inconsistent period from heavy exercise. I’ve been on it for a year at this point and I have never gotten my period which my doctor said was normal. Recently, I have been spotting lightly. I accidentally missed my last two pills and I now have my period. Is this normal?
