You are supposed to start your pills the Sunday after ur period ends. But starting a week after ur period ends isn't bad either but ur period will be a little off track
With the traditional birth control pill you take a cycle of pills every day for 21 days and then 7 days of sugar pills. In the 7 days of the sugar pills you have a period. Today, there are pills that skip the 7 days of pills and you stay on pills for 3 months and then after the cycle of 3 months you have a period. In both cases after the period you start a new cycle of pills.
you will get your period when you start taking your "period" placebo pills in your pack
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.
some birth control pills give you a shorter period.
Your period usually comes during the placebo pills week(sugar pills).
Right on the first day. It will take a month before the pills will be effective.
no. Birth control pills can stop periods altogether, shorten them, or turn them in to "spotting" If you were getting your period before you started the pills. If you stop at any time during your cycle this should bring on your period.
Keep taking your pills as directed.
Yes, you should continue your birth control pills as schedule regardless of bleeding.
Because estrogen and progesterone hormone levels control the female cycle and the pills operate by "skewing" the cycle.
Well yeah. If you are on birth control, when you have your "period" or bleeding, you continue with the sugar pills until it is time for a new pack. But if you have not started using birth control yet you wait until the Sunday after your period and then take your first pill, this is called "the Sunday start"
Yes, if you start the birth control pill for the first time before your period, your period will come later. It usually comes during the last week of the cycle.
