If you missed tow pills and had breakthrough bleeding, resuming your pills should stop the bleeding. However, since you missed two pills you are not protected this month, so use a backup method of birth control.

If you have missed that many pills, do not have unprotected sex. After taking your next pill wait at least 7 days before having sex unprotected.
Will taking two to three birth control pills at a time damage your insides?
No, it will not. It's part of the normal treatment when catching up on missed birth control pills (up to two at a time), or using birth control pills to control irregular uterine bleeding, as well as for emergency contraception.
What are the chances of getting pregnant if you restarted the pill two days late after your period and have been having unprotected sex?
Hi there, There is a slim chance of getting pregnant because you missed two pills. Because you missed some pills your next period will probably arrive two days later than normal for you. This is to be expected. But if you suspect pregnancy go to your doctor for a blood test. :-)

Doubling up is reasonable; taking more than two at a time is not.
