If you're using hormonal Birth Control you don't menstruate at all - hormonal birth control works by preventing ovulation; no ovulation = no menstruation - the bleeding women get on hormonal birth control such as the pill is withdrawal bleeding caused by the drop in hormones when going from your active to inactive pills. You should get a withdrawal bleed every 21 days, during the first three months on the pill it's normal for bleeding patterns to be irregular so you may not get a withdrawal bleed - if this continues over three months you should talk to your doctor as you may need a different dosage.
