Yes, the Birth Control pill will mess with your period in that it stops periods.
The pill works by suppressing the menstrual cycle so that you do not ovulate, thus in turn you do not menstruate - the bleeding experienced on the pill is a withdrawal bleed caused by the drop in synthetic hormones when going from active to inactive pills or the week break.

You took a birth control pill by mistake will it mess my period up?
If you took your birth control pills late, it is very likely that your cycle will be disrupted, however, I would still be aware of my body and do a pregnancy test.
If you start using birth control on the Monday after your cycle will it still be effective?
birth control becomes effective after the first month of use. So you would begin the pill after your period, use up a pack, get your period and then you are protected. everytime after that, you have nothing to worry about unless you mess up on your pills.
If you are on birth control pills and forget to take them all the time will it mess with your hormones and make you have a grater chance of becoming pregnant?
You have to take the pill for it to work. If you are missing pills (greater than one/month,) you may not be covered for preventing pregnancy. If you can't remember to take the pills, you should consider another form of birth control. (I am a nurse-practitioner.)
You stopped talking your birth control 5 days before you were supposed to will that mess your period up?
Yes it can. Because when you take birth control, it is all about regulating your hormones and menstrual cycle. This cycle from birth control protects you from pregnancy. Whether you missed two days, or even if you do not take your birth control everyday at the same time, your period can become irregular, and even worse you are increasing your chance of becoming pregnant. If you have had unprotected intercourse within a near time frame of when you stopped taking your birth control, you may have become pregnant, because you did not properly take your pills. This also means indeed it will mess your period up because you may not get one if you have become pregnant. In this situation, you should think about pregnancy more, if you have had unprotected intercourse, because you may have not been completely protected.

Can birth control mess up your period?
There are many different forms of birth control, but if you're talking exclusively about hormonal birth control such as combination pill, mini pill, or ring then they don't so much 'mess up' your period as stop it all together. Menstruation is part of the menstrual cycle/reproductive cycle, a domino effect of hormonal changes between the brain and reproductive organs over the space of 28 days on average. Menstruation occurs roughly two weeks after ovulation, if the egg released is not fertilised it triggers the break-down in the uterus lining design to support a fertilised egg. Hormonal birth control such as the combination pills works to suppress the menstrual cycle/reproductive cycle in order to prevent ovulation (it also effects cervical mucus and prevents uterus lining becoming as thick) - as a woman doesn't ovulate while on hormonal birth control it means she doesn't menstruate. The bleeding women get while on the pill is a withdrawal bleed caused by the drop in hormones when going from the active to inactive/placeo pills, this is meant to mimic menstration but is not the same thing. During the first three months on a new hormonal birth control some irregular bleeding is normal as the body adjusts from having a menstrual cycle to this synthetic pattern of withdrawal bleeds. Irregular bleeding can be a common side-effect of hormonal birth control, if it continues after three months it is best to discuss this with a doctor to consider switching to another brand or form of birth control without this side-effect.
Will stopping birth control pills mess with your hormones?
Yes, anything like that can seriously upset the balance of your body. Depending on when you began taking the pills, your body will have only recently settled into the effects of the pills. It will take some time for it to return to its previous status or to find a new balance.
