Why during the first cycle on the pill can you not get the withdrawal bleed on your pill break if you've never missed a pill and you use withdrawal as backup during sex?

The pill doesn't give you a withdrawal bleed. The only time the pill gives you a bleed is during your "off pill" days (7 days) when your period is expected. Using the withdrawal method as backup will NOT protect you from pregnancy. Withdrawal is NOT a backup method since you become pregnant from this method just as you do from full sex. You need to be using a backup method of protection in the form of condoms for the first 4-5 weeks of taking the pill. If you dont you run the risk of pregnancy.

If you intentionally skipped your period while on the pill when can you expect your next period?
If you're using the combination pill then you don't get a period, instead you experience a withdrawal bleed as a result of a drop in synthetic hormones when going from your active to inactive pills. If you skipped your last withdrawal bleed this doesn't effect your next withdrawal bleed, you will get it as normal during your next placebo week.

What you experienced is the withdrawal bleed which is caused by the hormones decreasing from your system.

It can be anytime after the withdrawal bleed upto 4 weeks.
