Can your period come late because you took 3 birth control pills at one time?

That's certainly possible. If you took three Birth Control pills because you missed pills, consider taking a pregnancy test now, and repeating in two weeks, and consider another method with a lower risk of forgetting.

∙ 11y agoSome women get their period on exactly the same day on their pill pack, but this is not a reasonble expectation.
Approx. 1 -3 women per 10,000 will get pregnant using birth control pills, they are not 100% effective. If you have been on antibioitcs this will reduce the effectiveness of the pill. Just because you missed your period does not mean you are pregnant however. Stress and other factors can also cause women to miss a period, if you have breast tenderness with nausea and/or vomiting, you may be pregnant. You might need a different dose of pill, if symptoms persist, see your doctor.

Is there any way you can make your period come sooner or make it last for a shorter amount of time?
Hello The only way to make your period arrive earlier than usual for you is by taking birth control pills and by missing some pills or you can miss a period completely by continuing to take birth control pills instead of going onto the sugar pills. But you can only do this when you've been on birth control pills for about two months because the first month will be all over the place. Birth control pills do make your period lighter, less painful and can make your period shorter.
What happens if you delay your period for a week while on birth control and then do not get your period straight away when you start taking the sugar pills?
Continue taking your birth control pills as scheduled.
What are some birth control pills that make your period lighter?
In general, all birth control pills, as well as the patch and ring and the Mirena IUD, make your period lighter.
Will birth control pills change the amount of days you have your period?

Can you get pregnant from skipping your period using Birth Control?
Skipping your period by taking extra birth control pills or fewer placebo (sugar) pills lowers, not raises, your risk of pregnancy.
Is it an actual period if you miss birth control pills?
No bleeding that you have on birth control pills is an "actual period." Instead, it's withdrawal bleeding brought on by the drop in hormones when you miss pills or when you have your normally scheduled placebo week.

Sometimes yes.
Why don't I have a period during while taking the sugar pills?
Sometimes your periods are late or non-existent on the birth control pill. If you have missed pills or are concerned you can take a pregnancy test. Missing birth control pills will decrease the effectiveness of them preventing you from becoming pregnant. The birth control pills will not make the pregnancy test come up positive.
