∙ 15y agoThis is normal. Since your body is getting hormones from the pill it can confuse your body. The point of the pill is to make your body think you are pregnant. So missing periods can be normal. Though if it worries you take a pregnancy test to make sure.

What does it mean if you start your period 2 weeks before you are supposed to while on birth control?
Some birth control pills can affect/alter your cycle, when I first started mine I had a light period for a month, then it stopped, if you are worried though, you should see your doctor. Better get it checked out if you are worried.
You were on birth control about a month ago and you were supposed to already have your period this past month and it never came Does that mean Im pregnant?
No it means that your body is getting used to having it and then not having it so it does not mean that you are pregnant.
What does it mean when you have your period for two weeks?
That's an irregular period. Birth control can be recommended to help regulate your period.
What does it mean when you get your period while on the birth control patch?
It is called break through bleeding.Check with your doctor for other types of birth control.
You didn't us pill i missed period doesn't mean iam pregnant?
no it doesn't. it could mean you have an irregular period and birth control can help get it align although you are not using it to control birth but talk to your doctor about it.
What does it mean to have your period for 3 weeks?
you might need birth control from a doctor.
What does it mean if you come on your period early and you not on birth control?
It means that your period came early. That's it, no more complicated than that.Also FYI on hormonal birth control you don't menstruate, you get a withdrawal bleed.
If your taking birth control and didn't start your period when you was supposed to what does that mean?
You don't have to start the very first day your birth control says you start your period. I usually start late monday, monday nights or tuesday. But if you havn't the whole week, you could be pregnant, or there maybe something wrong with the pills, so go see your doctor, or a teen clinic.
If your girlfriend is on birth control and she gets off to have her period and you go in her while she is on her period does the pill still work?
Nope!!!! If you mean having sex while she is not on birth control pills. she WILL get pregnet. If she is having her period and she is not on pills and you have sex with her, she is gonna get pregnet.
What does it mean if you start you period on day you ovulate?
If your period wasn't due & you're on birth control, then this is break through bleeding. Birth control stops you from ovulating. If you're currently on the 7day break or sugar pills then this is normal.
What does it mean if you are on the Nuva ring and expecting your period and are having brown discharge?
When you're on hormonal birth control, the amount and color of withdrawal bleeding may be different from your period when you're not on birth control. Brown discharge counts as a period when you're on the pill, patch, or ring.
Will you have a normal period the first month you get off birth control?
It's very unlikely that you'd have a normal period the first month off birth control (I'm assuming by 'birth control' what you actually mean is the combination pill - please don't use these terms interchangeably, there are many forms of birth control!). Your first 'period' will be your withdrawal bleed as normal, but after that it may take a few months to get a real period again. It can also take up to 12 months for your cycles to regulate again once you stop using hormonal birth control.
