What to do if your birth control pill does not regulate your period?

Birth Control pills can't regulate your period, that's impossible - they work by stopping your menstrual cycles so that you don't ovulate, thus you also don't menstruate (bleeding women get on the pill is a withdrawal bleed, not menstruation). You need to have tests carried out to determine why your periods are irregular and then look into treatment options.
