I take the contraceptive pill Alesse 28 and I skip my periods once every 2 months. Lately, I have been experiencing brown discharge and I am worried.

It is common for women who take the birth control pill to experience brown spotting, especially if they skip their periods. This is often caused by stress and can be reduced by taking the pill continuously without taking a break every two months. If you are worried about the brown spotting, it may be a good idea to speak with your healthcare provider for further advice and guidance.
