It should take about a month. Birth Control pills are hormones; they make sure a specific amount of the proper hormone is in your blood each day. When your hormonal cycle has gone through a cycle, your period occurs.
If they are your birth control pills, prescribed by your doctor, you need to make another appointment and listen this time to what your doctor tells you.
Ask your doctor
You should call your doctor to get clarification of how to take your birth control pills. Birth control pills are supposed to be started on the Sunday after your period begins.
They can actually work for that but you need to speak to your doctor about that.
As long as you are taking your birth control pills it is very unlikely that you would get pregnant, wether you skip your period or not. Als always if you are unsure, speak to your doctor or nurse.
No, if this is occurring, then you should not be using that pill. See your doctor.
No you will not get your period while taking the active pills only the inactive pills. You may have spotting. If this is bothersome contact your doctor and they may give you another birth control pill that will work better for you.
In the US, birth control pills require a prescription from a health care provider.
Yes, but you need a prescription from a doctor or nurse practitioner. Birth control pills are not sold over-the-counter.
That is usually not normal because you shouldn't get a period while on those pills you might want to see a doctor.
Continue taking your birth control pills as scheduled.
In general, all birth control pills, as well as the patch and ring and the Mirena IUD, make your period lighter.
