A few things need to be taken into consideration. Hypericum, or St. John’s wort, which is used as an antidepressant, interacts with many drugs. When taken together with the pill, even when spaced out, it may cause a reduction in contraceptive effectiveness due to a decrease in the plasma concentration of estrogen (ethinyl estradiol).
Can you notice it when you wear a short-sleeved shirt? I wouldn't want people looking at me!
I discussed it with my gynecologist to better understand why this can happen.

Right now I like the idea that it lasts three years, but what if I decide I want to have a child....
