What else can I help you with?
You missed the third week of pills but started your period as if it had been your fourth week should you be worried?
No this is perfectly normal. The way birth control pills work, is they are estrogen or progesterone. When a woman is pregnant the levels of these hormones increase. Birth control pills increase the estrogen levels in your body, fooling it into thinking that you are pregnant already so there is no ovulation. As the estrogen in your body decreases your body realizes that is not pregnant and sloughs off the lining of the uterus (your period) as it would normally.
