It's different for every woman I'm afraid, and it varies a lot depending on the type of Birth Control pills you use. Call your gynecologist, she/he will have the best answer. Although sometimes you can get good info from the websites for your particular medication.

Every womans cycle is different. Some don't have their period at all while on birth control or only have is once a month. Once you do have it mark it on a calendar so you can chart when you will have it next time.

Hormonal birth control works by suppressing your menstrual cycles so that you no longer ovulate, and as you no longer ovulate you also no longer menstruate either. The bleeding women get on birth control such as the combination pill is a withdrawal bleed caused by the drop in synthetic hormones when going from active to inactive pills - it mimics menstruation but isn't the same thing.

Withdrawal bleeds are generally lighter than menstrual bleeds because the combination pill prevents secondary uterine lining build-up in order to prevent implantation in the event that you do ovulate and conceive. For the first few months on a new form of hormonal birth control your bleeding can be very irregular as your body adjusts to the change, this can include missing withdrawal bleeds through to bleeding heavily for three months solid. Everyone responds differently.

If you didn't get your period the whole month and your in the first week of the next month does it mean your pregnant?

not necessarily. many women are irregular in the sense of their period can be like every other month. it just depends on the type of person you are. if you just got your period for the first time and you have had for a little while then chances are you aren't. when i first had mine it was like every three months so don't stress out. but if you have had it for a while and you just recently had unprotected sex then you may, or your period can just be late in the sense of it will come like next week. so don't stress out!

Will your period come on if you keep the NuvaRing in?

Not necessarily. You can start your first ring with or without your period. If you start without your period, you should use a backup method, like condoms or abstinence from vaginal sex, for the first seven days. After that first month, you should put in the NuvaRing right on schedule, whether you're bleeding or not. For a large proportion of Nuva Ring users, that means inserting the next month's ring while you're still bleeding. It's not unusual to have breakthrough bleeding during the first few months of use.


Could you be pregnant if your period only last 3 days?

Sometimes, you CAN bleed while you are pregnant, but of course, it is not considered a period.

Go take a pregnancy test just in case :]
