If you are a Sunday starter on Ortho Tri-Cylen Lo when will you get your period?
If you start your birth control on Sunday, it is not uncommon for your period to come slightly later than 28 days from the period in which you based your Sunday start. Your period will occur any time between 22-28 days from when you started the Ortho Tri-Cyclen Lo. The progesterone component of the birth control is what prevents you from having your period. The withdrawal of the progesterone (which starts with the placebos) causes the endometrium to become unstable and thus bleeding occurs. So, if you started the birth control a few days after your period, you may extend the time until your next period because you are supplementing progesterone for a few extra days than your body is used to and so menses won't occur until after the progesterone is removed (and the placebos are started).
